What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the product for rapid grass growth visible within days to two weeks, particularly for small patch repairs from pet damage or weather. Many highlight the convenient shaker design combining seed, fertilizer, and mulch in one step, calling application straightforward and ideal for inexperienced gardeners. The mulch effectively retains moisture and keeps seed in place. However, some customers report complete failure with no germination or unexpected weed overgrowth, often linked to inconsistent watering or environmental conditions. Despite these setbacks, most reviewers recommend it for targeted spot repairs.

Works ina shady areas but will still need some sun

Good way to keep the seed moist / sprout in AZ heat. Better for bigger dead patches

Happy with this product.
I put this product on my lawn a week ago yesterday. Watered it every day, and now have new grass coming up. So far it has done as advertised.

Great for trouble spots!
I had a tree removed last year and I overseeded this year where it used to be. Overseeding worked except for a couple of difficult spots. So I got EZ patch for these spots in early October. 2 weeks later the spots are gone and it is filling in nicely! Thanks Scott's!

EZ Seed worked great, with minimal watering
Scott’s EZ Seed worked great for us.! 2 years ago we tried straight grass seed, and used it with peat moss, but it didn’t work very well. Then last year (early October) we used EZ Seed in our bare patches. Because of cooler temperatures, we watered it only infrequently – maybe every 3-4 days – and it began to sprout after just a few days. These new areas were healthy grass going into the winter, and looked great in the spring, too. We’re impressed and happy. EZ Seed is sort of expensive, but it’...

Waste of money
Did not get a single blade of grass... I did follow the directions..

Product does live up to the promise.
Have used this product and had no luck. Watered daily as recommended. Some came up and some didn't. What did didn't survive especially in the shaded area. Wouldn't recommend useing this product. Even used what was left on a small area and still nothing. Wasted my money

No seed?
I thought this container had seed in it. After weeks of watering nothing. I looked through the container and I saw nothing that looks like grass seed. I know it is a very small seed but I didn't see any.

Full of Quack Grass (a weed), Don't Use!!
Used to fill in bare spots, in my 4 month old lawn. It grew quickly, but it's nothing but Quack grass (a weed). My lawn is on scheduled lawn maintenance and I have little to no feeds for over 10 years, but everywhere I used your product has Quack grass. My lawn maintenance said I need to kill lawn and start over. Horrible product!! Many of your reviews comment on how quickly they get crab grass (a weed) so you definitely have a problem. Don't Buy!!!

New grass is growing well after just 14 days!
New grass is growing well after just 2 weeks! I just sprinkled some Miracle Gro Soil, then applied the EZ Seed. Watered morning and whenever the soil looked like it was ready (light brown). I'm very happy with this Product!

Highly underwhelming
I bought this a month ago, lightly tilled the area to be seeded, and watered religiously everyday. Had very low to no germination. Waste of time, waste of money.

Don’t work
Third time trying this product and 0 growth. I even tried putting down miracle grow ground soil before putting EZ down and nothing. Air temperature within ideal range and watered appropriately. Total rip off!

so-So
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this product multiple times with not so great results. It needs to be kept very moist at all times for the germination and that is difficult at times. There also does not appear to be a high quantity of seed in the mix as I always add to the mix before spreading.

Jug of weeds
I’ve used Scott’s products for years and hadn’t had any issues until now. I used and plastic jug of the EZ seed and it mostly grew weeds, very disappointed with this. I’ve attached pics of the small area I had to seed and you’ll see many different weeds and not a lot of grass and good looking turf.

No results
Bought this a couple months ago, applied 3 weeks ago. Followed directions. Not a single blade of grass. Not one. Maybe those spots are terrible for some reason, or this sat on the shelf at Ace for too long, but this stuff certainly didn't accomplish anything.
