How to Seed a New Lawn
Dig or till the ground to a 3-inch depth. Rake to remove clods and smooth out the surface. Remember that you’re establishing a finished grade, so include any contours needed for drainage.
Add compost, topsoil and starter fertilizer and then work them into the soil.
Spread the grass seed at the rate indicated on the packaging. To ensure even coverage, sow half of the seed in one direction and the other half in a different direction to make a crisscross pattern.

Rake the entire area again to cover the seeds with a small amount of soil. Mulch with a weed-free straw, such as wheat straw, or use an erosion control blanket to prevent the seed from blowing or washing away.
Water frequently to keep the seeds moist (don’t saturate). Cut watering back to once a day when the grass reaches about 1 inch in height.
Mow when the grass reaches 2-1/2 to 3 inches. After you’ve mown three times, use a regular watering schedule of 1 inch per week. After mowing a minimum of four times, apply a crabgrass control product to stop the germination of unsightly crabgrass.

Seems to work fine, but we'll have to wait for spring
Total miss
Was rejuvinating my lawn, added 4 yards of awesome compost and doubled the rate. Took 2 weeks to start germinating and very spermatic. At another month after germination I have a lot of thin spindly blades of new grass about 1.5". I have planted dozens of new lawns and this product is a complete let down. Basically miss this years window weather wise with incredable input of time and labor and money. It's a Pass!
I PURCHASED 99% WEEDS!!
An entire lawn of brand new top soil, clean slate spread this grass 20#s. My soil is littered with weeds. No grass, just weeds! Super bummed, now I need to dig up my yard (1/4 acre) and start all over again. Thanks Lowes! 😤

It works fast. In less than a week I had grass growing in a spot that was red clay soil and completely bare.
Faster Germination
Quality Seed... Coated for faster germination easy broadcasting and disease protection Very effective, well worth the extra cost considering the one step application eliminating the need for added fertilizer

Grass is not going to sprout in 2 weeks.
The seed has been very slow to germinate. It’s watered daily but the grass has been very slow coming.

Great product
I am using these grass seeds for a small area next to the front of my house. I love the fact that they will grow so fast.
NO SHOW
Didn't do what it stated. I followed the directions and made sure I gave it plenty of water but so far the grass hasn't showed up.

Hi Akechata,
We’re sorry to hear you didn’t see the results you were expecting. Please note that germination can take up to 3 weeks depending on...

Good for keeping your lawn thick and full.
Grew in very quickly which is great, but it is very patchy and had to be reseeded several times to get full coverage.
Pleased with results.
Over seeded bare spots in direct sunlight. Fortunately we are having a lot of rain here in ATLANTA.
