What Customers Are Saying
Customers report sharply divided experiences. About half praise rapid grass growth within one to two weeks, especially for repairing damaged or bare patches, crediting success to consistent daily watering and proper ground preparation. However, roughly a third report complete failure—no germination despite following instructions, with mats disintegrating into wet paper towels. Several note batch inconsistency, with one roll succeeding while another from the same order failed entirely. Many highlight ease of installation, though some struggle with wind displacement and material durability. Overall, results depend heavily on preparation and watering discipline.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was super easy to install over my backyard. Coverage was straight forward and started seeing sprouts within 2 weeks.

No grass yet
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Still waiting. Nothing popping up yet. I planned grass seed next to the Growtrax area as comparison and that area is growing grass without any problem.

All conditions must be perfect
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Didn’t work for us. Product had to be held to the ground with lawn staples. Had some wind that day and blew up product in the middle. Conditions must be perfect for product to work.
From GrowTrax
We’re sorry to hear it didn’t work out, that’s definitely frustrating. Wind can be a challenge early on before the mat has time to settle. We recomme...
Grow trax - the jury is still out.
Would RecommendThis product works best on fresh soil with mixed reviews on patchy grass
From GrowTrax
Thanks for the feedback. For best results, we always recommend good soil prep and direct soil contact, as that gives the seed the strongest chance to ...

Very difficult product
Would Not RecommendI purchased this product believing it would simplify and improve the process of regrowing grass in my front yard. It was initially easy to install but trying to keep the product down after the initial install has been a headache. I prepped the ground and keep it watered as instructed but any amount of wind messes the product up and now I have a mess of torn seed cloth in my front yard. I'm about to rake it all up and just spread seed.
From GrowTrax
We’re really sorry to hear this, that sounds incredibly frustrating after putting in the work. Wind can be especially tough in the early stage befor...
Ground needs to be perfectly flat or else
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to roll out but ground needs to be perfectly flat. Otherwise, if you are rolling it on top of bunches of grass, it won’t sit flat and won’t grow. Also hasn’t been great for southern New England in April. Not sure if it is still just a bit too cold or just not sunny enough, but I’m almost 2 weeks in and no shoots. Probably going to pick it up, thrown down seed, and put this on top of the seed I throw down and see how that goes.
From GrowTrax
Thank you for sharing your experience, we really appreciate the detailed feedback. For southern New England in April, cooler soil temperatures and li...
Imperial MO
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Grass is coming up nicely after a couple weeks. Hard to keep in place if windy
From GrowTrax
Great to hear it’s coming up nicely, that’s a great sign! And yes, wind can be tricky in those early weeks before it fully roots in. To help keep it i...
Grass has begun to grow
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had a bald spot for years and could never get grass to grow until we tried this product...and now we finally have grass growing. Worth it.
From GrowTrax

From GrowTrax
Thanks for sharing, we are glad to hear the rolls were easy to work with, that’s exactly what we aim for!
Love my grass "rug
Would RecommendThis grass rug, as I like to call it, is really pretty convenient. Cut and roll to size, then water the heck out of it. My yard is full of squirrels, and they seem very interested in this as well and have dug up lots of little areas of the rug. The grass however, is still coming up. You have to water this more than you think... in the hot Florida sun, I water 3 times a day. For the first couple of days, I saw nothing, then all of a sudden, I started to see some green fuzz. The grass!! Now ...

Your product is not good
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Too delicate, even staked down the wind rips it to shreds, I had to buy hay mats with nylon netting to get it stay down. I feel as though I wasted my money and can not recommend this product.
From GrowTrax
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience, that’s definitely not what we want for our customers. Please reach out to our customer support tea...
Best idea ever, growtrax pro
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought protrax Pro on March 10th 2026. Installed it on March 18th, 2026. My first signs of growth was March 24th, 2026. I had a full backyard around the 16th of April, 2026. Best thing to do is get a wifi timer for your hoses and sprinkler and build a watering schdule around growtrax watering example. So worth the money. Just follow the instructions and videos on youtube.
From GrowTrax
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and detailed timeline! We’re thrilled to hear how well GrowTrax worked out—from installation in March to...

Great product
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product and it grows fast. I saw the grass after about one week. I also put small amount of soil on top of it to prevent it from being blowed away by wind.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to ‘plant’. Cool spring I am sure contributing to slow growing. 2 weeks and I have small shoots popping up.
