Scotts Turf Builder Rapid Grass Tall Fescue Mix, Combination Grass Seed and Fertilizer, Grows Green Grass in Just Weeks, 5.6 lbs.

Let me just say: I threw this stuff on my sad, patchy, post-apocalyptic wasteland of a lawn with very low expectations. I didn’t water it like I was supposed to, I ignored it for a few days, and yet… BOOM. Grass. Glorious, thick, green grass. It came in faster than my Amazon Prime delivery.My neighbors are slowing their cars to stare. One asked if I was using "black market sod." A squirrel moved in and started a family. I saw a rabbit nibbling politely like it was at a fine dining restaurant.I half expected to wake up to a letter from the Italian neighbors apologizing for doubting me.If you're wondering whether this works—yes. But be warned: once you use it, you’ll be obligated to maintain a level of lawn greatness previously unknown to you. The grass grew so fast and thick I’m 90% sure it whispered, “You’re welcome.”

Thought the bag was a little bigger but it worked for what I needed I ended up having to get more seeds but they grew and about 5 days I saw them break through the soil and they lasted for about 6 weeks before I saw them starting to dial I actually needed to get sun grass instead of shade. Vibrant green and did fairly well after watered .

I broadcasted this seed last fall as an overseeding project for my lawn. I had pretty decent germination by broadcasting with a spreader. In some areas where I didn't need complete overseeding I tossed the seed out by hand. I didn't really notice any improvement over other fescue seeds. It came up like any seed I've put down. I've got some hard spots where grass has died and I didn't rake them up before broadcasting, hoping the seed might find a home anyway and it didn't work in those areas. That's my fault for being lazy! It's a good product, but if this costs more than other grass seed, I wouldn't spend more for this particular product.

I must say I am very inexperienced in growing plants or grass. I don’t have a green thumb and I am not inclined to do much yard work. That saying, I highly recommend this! It is super easy to use and very effective. I live in Texas and saw it germinate and grow maybe a little after a week in the spring? Only reason I’m not posting photos is because it wouldn’t do the product justice. I didn’t know what I was doing and spread it out in a couple different patchy areas but I didn’t use enough. User error, not the product

I wish there was a way to give zero stars. This is now my seventh time trying this grass seed with the same results… It all dies. It will grow very quickly but then as soon as the temperature is above 80°F, even with the proper water, the grass turns brown. I have been planting grass seed for over 20 years and I have never had this issue before. I now have to start completely over with topsoil, aeration, and I will not be using this seed ever again. Buyer beware. If planted in shade, you may be good to go but if you even have four hours of sunlight a day, this grass will not survive. Terrible seed.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Overseeded my lawn and did not notice much new growth from these grass seeds. Nor did it fill in any of the bare spots even though I put top soil down over the grass seed.

Our grass had been washed away by Hurricane Helene in September. I was doubtful we could ever replace the lovely yard we had. We were desperate to get rid of the trail of mud that kept following us into the house. We were delighted with the results we saw after using Rapid Grass. Once again we have a lush, green lawn . This is a high quality product that we have been thrilled with. We will definitely repurchase and continue to use this product for any future lawn care needs.

This stuff really works, but works best with some help. I have attached photos. My first attempt was just the seeding and it did help slightly but not significant results with the red dirt clay we have. If you are starting from scratch and there is red dirt clay, it takes more than just the seed to see a major difference. For the second attempt, I purchased top soil and the coconut/straw to lay on top to help with erosion.You can absolutely tell where I stopped the seeding. I would say the whole process took about 4 weeks so see these (so far) results. The photos show the progress from beginning to 4 weeks out from the second attempt.
