When the seed is good, the product works well.

I purchased this at another store. This particular bad did not germinate very well. When I opened the bag there was a big clump of seed. This is not normal. Some of the seed looked odd. I like the brand normally, but this particular bag was not the quality that I am use to. My other bag germinated great. Should have returned it, just wanted to get the job done. :(

Quick growth!!!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just tried Pennington Central Contractors Mix Grass Seed here in AZ, and I'm honestly impressed! ✅ Heat-tolerant - Held up great in our crazy Arizona sun ✅ Quick growth - I saw sprouts in about a week ✅ Drought-resistant - Didn't need constant watering once it took root ✅ Great coverage - Filled in my patchy spots fast Lawn care in the desert isn't easy, but this mix actually worked in our tough climate. If you're in the Southwest and want a th...

It's growing

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Actually growing grass in the hard spots, taking a little longer than usual with all the rain but it's progressing pretty good. Hoping to have a full lawn by summer and it's on track. Like that's it's colored green so it's harder to see for birds and such. Blended well.

Good stuff

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried several different grass seeds to try to cover a particularly stubborn patch of ground where my late husband used to park his truck. I still don't have full coverage, but I do have some grass growing. I had just about given up on ever having grass in that spot. Thank you.

Have not seen it work yet

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't want to discredit this product because it might seem that I have an issue with my ground. I planted seed here over a month ago and I don't see change at all. I might have a sick patch of dirt that will need to be lifted in fresh dirt filled. I have used this brand products in the past and have worked great for me on this occasion unfortunately, I see no change so I will not leave a bad review. I've always had luck with their products in...

Temporary fix in cool weather only.

Would Not Recommend

I planted this seed while it was still cool and the area was getting plenty of rain. The initial growth was very green and dense. However, I would not recommend this seed if you live in the South. As soon as temperatures started rising which was shortly after growth, many areas turned brown despite watering. The grass is also not mower friendly. The wheels crush the blades and are not cut leaving very uneven areas. I trusted the claims that the contractor seeds mix was specifically formulated fo...
