Scotts Turf Builder Rapid Grass Tall Fescue Mix - Combination Grass Seed and Fertilizer for Lawns, Lawn Seed That Grows in Just Weeks, 5.6 lbs.

Follow the directions, water, and you will have grass. My dog tore up my backyard grass wise, and just looked terrible. Bought this bag, spread the seed around. Watered often, recommends twice a day. Got a fair amount of rain after I laid the seed, so that may have helped. About a week in you can see sprouts, around that two week mark it was growing well. Patchy, and seems slow. But it does grow. Can't control how it grows or patches. As for weeds, your outside, you may get weeds. It happens. I'm satisfied with the product. Will eventually buy another bag or two to cover a few other areas.

I wanted to wait until the grass had a chance to grow before leaving my review, and I’m very pleased! The germination rate was quick, the grass came in thick and healthy, and it’s already looking great in my yard. In the picture you can clearly see the 2-foot radius where it was planted, and it’s extremely healthy grass. So healthy and thick that even when mowed at 1.75” you can see the cat prints walking through it! Easy to plant, grows strong, and definitely worth it. Highly recommend if you want reliable results! This location gets direct sunlight the second half of the day which I was a little nervous about not being able to water it super consistently, but no problems with the heat!

It’s a mixed bag. If the seeds color is green and not yellow then you’re good to proceed. First bag I got was yellow and it did not do anything to my lawn. Will need to follow directions but it works well. My lawn is toward a darker green in color. Try to puncture some holes in your lawn before you throw the seed and water twice a day until it reaches 2 inches tall and your lawn will be green in no time.

This is an excellent choice for fast growing grass! I’ve used it twice when I wanted grass to come in fast. It even grew quickly in a dense shade area under a tree! Little on the pricey side, but worth it in the end! The grass comes in thick, green, and beautiful! You have to do your part though with the watering!

Edit: changing my review as seed started to germinate after about 3 weeks. Not excellent results by any means but not 0% like original review. They sprouted better in the shade areas than the sun. Seeded almost 2 weeks ago with two 5.6 lb bags. Raked areas, put down seed, covered with "lawn soil." Watered daily in the spring (no extreme cold or hot temperatures). 0% germination. Like literally not one sprout with two full bags put down on three different lawns in my yard (back, side, front). Wish there was some way to return but obviously not.

Perfect

The grass seed didn’t germinate. I keep it watered as instructed and covered with straw. Not sure what happened.
