What Customers Are Saying
The Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Sun & Shade Mix appears to be a generally effective product for growing grass in both sunny and shaded areas. Many customers reported positive results, with the seed germinating quickly and producing a thick, green, and lush lawn, even in areas that previously struggled to grow grass. However, some customers experienced poor germination and growth, despite following the instructions carefully. The product seems to work well in many cases, but may not be a guaranteed success for all users.

Disappointed
Bought a dethatcher, then aerated, seeded with Scotts sun and shade, used starter fertilizer and got poor results after over 25 days. Began early September in the state of CT. Waste of money and time.

not all the seeds work... 70-75%...
I purchased the largest bag available and used it for 1/3 of the sqft area advertised hoping that it was going to even fuller than normal... i followed the spreader and watering instructions to the dot... the results after 3-4 weeks were not what I expected... Several areas with blanks..... so now i will have to reseed in all the blank spaces... I am wondering what would have happened if i used it in the area advertised... the blanks would have been even more...

Scott’s is number one.
I have used other products over the years but Scott’s products have proven to be a better product. I now only use Scott’s brand

The winner seed
I bought this product 3 times this spring. Early to sprout, usually in 4 days. Very happy with color.

Big Disappointment with Scotts Sun & Shade Mix.
Tried it on both areas Sun & Shade. Works great in the shade, watered daily. The sunny areas was a big Disappointment. A lot of work for seed preparation with 80% less coverage results in the sun.

Worst seed ever
Don't waste your money. Never came up. Followed all directions and watered twice daily. On another part of lawn, I use general purpose generic sun and shade and that came up in 7-9 days

The worst
Have been a faithful user until they changed to "combo." The worst possible product. Grass did not grow, weeds flourished and finally found the original just seed. If I can't find just the seed in the future, I will have to change to a new company's product. Just the worst.
