Scotts Turf Builder Rapid Grass Tall Fescue Mix - Combination Grass Seed and Fertilizer for Lawns, Lawn Seed That Grows in Just Weeks, 16 lbs.

This worked really well for us. We had a few patchy areas in the yard and this filled in nicely without a lot of extra effort. Super easy to use—just spread, water, and let it do its thing. We started seeing growth pretty quickly, and it came in thicker than expected. Great option if you don’t want to overthink lawn repair or deal with multiple products. It’s kind of a one-and-done solution.

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.

Sprouted in two weeks. Turned the soil and spread them in. Rain helped.

This stuff really works! You have to spread it correctly and cover with a layer of good soil. Water daily until is starts to sprout. Very green and thick.

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.

Absolute garbage. Has barely come up in three weeks despite constant watering. I seeded with different seed in one area - one with not starter fert and no claim to be ‘rapid’ and it has done much better. Avoid. The second photo is the cheaper product.

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!

Had a bag of those sitting in the garage for a year…decided to just throw it down and see what happens. Well, it sprouted. I didn’t even take care of it, so I can only imagine the results if I knew it would work. Bought another bag, a timer, and a new sprinkler. The sprouts that came up were a vivid green. I can’t wait to see the results with a new bag. I was impressed.
