I used a 1lb bag in a 200 sq ft area to start a new lawn. I hand broadcasted on April 8th. I watered frequently, maybe 3-5 times a day. Temperatures were between 80-90 for the firat month. Germination took a lot longer than i expected, but these are unhulled seeds and temperatures weren't always above 85 daily which is really the sweet spot for this seed. It started sprouting after ten days, and didn't fully finish germinating for about 30 days. If I could do it all over again, I would. It was c...

Will never buy again
Lots of weeds growing. Most seeds did not germinate. Waste of time and money. I got more grass from the 1 lb bag than I did with the 5 lb

Not Bermuda grass
This was my 3rd attempt using Scott’s Bermuda seed. The first two times I did not have one single blade of grass pop up. This year I’ve had nothing but crabgrass and goose grass growing instead of Bermuda. I’ve spent hours bent over in my yard pulling weeds instead of enjoying a nice yard.

Nice grass in no time!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This turf builder really helps my yard out, we have clayish soil so sometimes its hard to get the lawn really going. After spreading this out within a few weeks we had nice green grass growing. And it looks more full!

Tough growing grass in Arizona
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have an area in my yard that had grass but is now dirt. Normally, the winter Rye grass is planted in October not Bermuda grass. The area was well prepared prior to putting down seeds, The dirt was loosened and weeds, rocks and roots removed. The oleanders that border the area were thinned to let more light in. The soil pH was 7. The seeds were planted with the Scotts rotary spreader at the suggested rate. The sprinkler system was set at 6 wat...

Works even in a heat wave
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This grass seed works and works quickly! It even grew in the crazy summer heat wave we’ve been having this summer. The grass comes in thick, too. I will absolutely be using it again this fall to bulk up my lawn before winter.

Post drought reseed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used product to reseed areas after a minor drought period. Seed took with little effort and continued dry conditions (with some irrigation). Planning to purchase more as new dry/dead areas have emerged with dry conditions continuing.

Great grass seed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a few bare spots that needed grass and this worked well. Planted the seeds and kept them watered. They germinated within a couple of weeks and so far still doing well and starting to fill in better. The main thing to establish grass is to keep it watered! Will definitely buy again!

Turf Builder Bermuda Grass Seed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This grass seed is a mixture of Bermuda seed, fertilizer, and clay as a moisture retainer. The photo shows three distinctly different entities. The seed, fertilizer, and the clay. Definitely rake the area before seeding and then tamp in the seed to cover slightly with soil. Do not let it dry out. It may take a couple of weeks for germination.

Fills-in thin and brown areas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't really make any preparations for the Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Bermuda grass. My lawn is decently thick, but has some thins spots, as well as brown spots. I watered my front lawn then used my Scotts rotary spreader to apply an even layer across. After spreading I watered a bit more. Within about a week I noticed new grass growing. After about two weeks, the brown spots appeared more green and full. I'm excited to see how this prog...

Very quick reliable seed for bermuda patching.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fast growing bermuda grass. Great for spot repair, or area where damaged grass exists. Best to aerate the section needed before planting to allow air to ground. You can use a machine or hand rake but it's pretty important if you want to get quick results. Definitely worked out in my yard with some grass that was damaged by chemical overspray. Took out the old, planted the seed and within a week had some fresh growth. Thanks for providing a reli...

Fast germination
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these seeds to patch some areas on my lawn where the other seeds would always wash away and no grass was growing there. I was surprised how fast these germinated. It took about a week and I could see small sprouts. After just three weeks I can’t tell where bare spots used to be. The seeds were super easy to spread, but you have to make sure to water them a lot.

Happy with Progress so Far
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband cleaned and prepped an area between our home and our carport digging by hand everything out and then applied Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Bermudagrass to the area. He watered it faithfully daily and within a very short time it was sprouting and coming in. He planted it during this summer before it got really hot. So far we are happy with the progress and we recommend Scotts Turf Builder Grass Bermudagrass Seed to anyone looking to ...
