New scotts grass seed is now half filler.
New scotts seeds are all filler with half the seed. I have half an acre of lawn, been using scotts tall fescue for 10yrs. Recently they switched from having all seed in the bag to now half the amount of seed and the rest fertilizer (filler). Now my overseeding sucess is terrible. I just did a 500sq/ft section but required the whole 1750sq/ft bag to even see the seed and maybe 25% germination, terrible and expensive. For me to switch to a better, all seed product it will cost a fortune and be ...

Thick Green Grass
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally the grass seeds have germinated. What a look! I have thick lush green grass from these seeds. It took some time for all of the seeds to germinate because I have lots of trees in my yard. It tends to hold water when it rains and I water on a regular basis. However, I believe keeping the seeds moist, as directed on the bag, is key to the results I have.

Loyal Customer says Goodbye!
I have been a loyal Scott’s customer for many years. Since they have repackaged the products to smaller quantities (32# instead of 40#) and doubled the price over the last 2 years, I will be purchasing another brand!

Grew fast and tall
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the tall fescue in a small area of my yard that i had done a repair in. I used the seed on a Sunday and by the following week I already was getting small sprouts. In 4 weeks i reseeded and now its been 7 weeks and you can barely tell work had been done in that spot.

‘Go To’ for all Lawn Repairs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We aerated / seeded the last week in August. Three weeks later and after the first mow, a few patchy areas near edging, pavers and where dogs may do their business were spot seeds using my two “go to” repair products; Scotts tall fescue grass seed and Scotts Turf Builder Lawn Soil. Ten days or so later, we have an inch or more growth in all areas spot treated. These two products take the worry out of lawn repair needs and highly recommend for...

Great seed will keep using it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second bag of this grass seed that I got, and it's working just as well as my first bag. Ive been using good dirt to plant it, but I wonder if I even have to because of the fertilizer that's included. It grows super fast and thick, would recommend.

Must have!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to apply product. Easy to follow instructions right on the product bag. I have used this product numerous times & even use the Scott's app that helps me create a plan for my personal yard. A must have in your garage stock.

Excellent grass seed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just prepped my yard for fall weather, I first dispatched and spread out Scott’s grass seed and then fertilized. And two weeks later I’m getting new grass. I highly recommend using Scotts grass seed for a nice green lawn.

Easy To Use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is pretty straighforward and the bag let me know exactly what setting to put on my spreader to lay seed. The bag is quite large and I just needed to go over some empty spaces in our yard so it worked perfectly for us. The seed is already making it appearance and appears healthy thus far. It seems to have improved our ground a bit and really made a difference with growth in the bare spots. Overall, I'm happy to have used this product and wi...

Premium grass seed, premium results
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Premium grass seed that will give you a good return on your investment. This germinated quickly and filled in the few holes that had exposed themselves during the summer. I've had worse results with other brands.

Fast Germination!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Scotts Tall Fescue Mix is a great combination of Fescue cultivars for the Transition Zone where I live. The bag contains both the seed and fertilizer which eliminates at least one of the steps (purchasing a separate starter fertilizer) when seeding. The seed germinated quickly as it was properly cared for with good seed bed preparation, seed to soil contact, and adequate water and sunlight.
