(10620) Black Beauty Dense Shade Grass Seed - Cool Season Lawn Seed (7 lb)

So far no grass but maybe too cold? Will try again in the spring

This grass seed is great, and the only brand I’ll buy from now on. It was spread heavily on fresh soil September 2024, lightly racked in, and lightly watered twice a day for 10 days while germinated. It’s been over 6 months and is thick and healthy. The roots are still young and relatively shallow, so it would need lots of watering this summer. I’m a homeowner DYI’er and my two pics show before seeding and after six months of growth and many mows. It may appear to cost more than heavily marketed brands, but it’s all seed - no thick coating or fillers to help fill the bag.

Le gazon a bien poussé mais les endroits très à l'ombre c'était plus difficile.

I am so happy about the results of this seed mixture! It began germinating in 2 weeks, just as it said. The first pic is before I got results. I am now at week 3, and it continues to grow and spread. Some areas grew before others. Slow, but sure. The water was key. The green color is so rich and vibrant! The quality of the blades is definitely better than my existing grass. I failed to put the accompanying fertilizer down, because I did not see this recommendation until after I received the shipment and read the instructions. I will do that when I seed again in the fall. I did this myself. Because it is still fairly cool, I chanced doing this in mid to late May. I checked the10-day forecast first. I tilled the ground specifically in spots where the grass was gone completely, and just lightly mixed it in with other saturated areas. I used my hand to throw the seeds down versus my seeding barrow in order to better concentrate on the bare spots. I watered it no less than every other day until the rains conveniently came. I tried to time it that way. I was so excited when I saw grass peeping! I have a corner that is very shady in the front due to lots of trees. Had bare spots for along time until I decided to take charge of my embarrassing yard. This is working perfectly! I look forward to seeing it in 6 weeks! Cutting it soon. As you have to wait a bit. It will need another pass to get the density I ultimately want. Definitely buying this again!

Been trying to grow grass in heavy shade for years. This season I tried this heavy shade product from Jonathan Green and as the season comes to an end, it seems I have a lawn in the shade!
