What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this lawn soil for dramatically accelerating grass growth and repairing bare spots, with many reporting visible sprouting within days and thicker lawns. Most find it easy to spread and effective for overseeding and lawn recovery. However, a notable group consistently complains about excessive wood chips, mulch, twigs, and debris—including plastic wrappers, metal bolts, and stones—which raises quality concerns. Despite these inconsistencies, most customers consider the results worthwhile and plan to repurchase, though some report complete failure and feel misled by product labeling.

Seeds germinated in just 2 weeks

Would Recommend

I had irrigation system installed. It left bare stripes in my centipede lawn. I used the Corona cultivator, a 10% seed mix and this Grass and Sod Lawn soil. I have new grass sprouting in less than 2 weeks. Very good performance.
