Patiently waiting
This product is easy to use. Easy to follow directions. We are so happy to have real grass in our yard but unfortunately we have several bald spots we had to re-seed.

Junk!
I tried this twice and it does not work as advertised. I ended up buying some other seed that was 1/2 the price and it came in thick and green Don’t waste your money on this product

Did not work, not one piece of grass
I put this down 14 days ago, watered every day as suggested, and not one sprout.

Amazing
I just purchased a house and the backyard has had a few bare spots, wasn’t sure if it would work, but it did. I watered twice a day, early morning and early evening, except on the days it rained. I’m truly amazed. The bare spots are from where I was walking to water the yard.

DISAPPOINTING RESULTS
Very disappointing. I paid a lot extra for this seed with the word "rapid" in the description and implication on the label that it grows 2x faster. I raked and pulled thatch, watered everyday that it didnt rain and I spread liberally even though the bag indicated coverage up to 8000 ft. 18 days later sparse results. I could have spent MUCH less for basic seed with better results

For Cool Season grasses (Bluegrass/Rye/Fescue), soil temperatures must be at least 55 degrees (+12.7 Celsius) for grass seed to germinate. In the north, daytime temperatures need to consistently be 65+ degrees (18.3 Celsius) range. In the spring, it takes a lot of consistently warm temperatures to warm up the soil, especially in the northern states. If temperatures have been lower than necessary for seed germination, the seed is still good and will most likely germinate once temperatures warm up.

Love this product and I’m far from a gardner!
Just bought a house in October, started working on the lawn late December early January and its really looking nice already. I’m in northern California and its been a little cold and somewhat rainiy. I watered 2x a day and im satisfied! We shall see how the hot summer goes!

Fast grow- 2 weeks indeed
It was a success. Seeds grew after 2 weeks, 1/4 of our garden was bald, I dig scattered seeds and cover it lightly with potting soil and made sure the soil is wet ( I did it winter time) and it grew.

Before and After (2 years of Scott's)
When I started using Scott's Rapid grass, the green parts of the yard were the weeds. It's now the second fall since I started using Scott's products. The only reason I'm reviewing my experience is because of the crazy one star reviews. My thoughts on some of the comments: 1. Grass seed needs water and dirt cover. A few loose 2x seeds grew roots on my walkway when I was watering it 3x a day. 2. Crab grass preventer doesn't add crab grass, you have to time it right or the crab-grass-seeds from last season's crab grass will explode into more crab grass. 3. Water, water, water. 4. Be very careful with the weed and feed. Especially if you have a thick lawn. Don't over-do it. Don't apply in warm weather. Reseed any casualties. 5. Be sure to check for grubs and treat them. (Do birds love your lawn? You may have grubs.) 6. Lastly, enjoy the before and after.

Appears to Have Limited Shelf Life
Purchased a large bag of this in Spring, 2021. Applied to 2 separate lawns in 2021 with some limited success - some grass grew with few weeds but it wasn't very thick. Applied product from same bag in Spring, 2022 to both lawns and no grass grew but there is thick Purslane wherever it was applied. My guess is that there is a shelf life to this product and the only thing that survives is the weed seed. If you are looking to cultivate Purslane this might be your product.

The warmer the soil, the faster the germination. This generally requires daytime temperatures consistently in the 65+ degrees range. We recommend watering 1-2 times per day to keep the seeds moist, until seed germinates. Then, we recommend watering about 1-1 1/2" per week as needed. Both excessive moisture and not enough moisture can inhibit seed germination. Germination time is based on ideal conditions of soil warmth and a constant amount of moisture.

Don't understand all the negative reviews.
This product worked great for me. Planted mid May in Wisconsin after tilling about 3-4". Spread Rapid Grass around. Watered 2x a day for a month and it's lush and beautiful now. Be patient and follow the steps on the bag.
