Q:Is it safe for geese if they eat the seeds?
by|May 9, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Neither the seed, fertilizer or soil amendment in Scotts Turf Builder Thick'R Lawn Grass Seed themselves pose a health risk to grazing animals. However, Scotts Grass Seed Mixes with varieties susceptible to endophytes should not be used in areas used for grazing livestock such horses, cows, goats, sheep etc.

    Q:Can I use "Thicker Lawn" to patch bare spots? how long will take to grow? if I do the entire lawn do I have to cover the lawn to avoid birds eating the seed?
    by|May 8, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Scotts Turf Builder THick'R Lawn is formulated for overseeding an existing thinned lawn. This product is not recommended for bare patches or planting a new lawn. Covering seed when overseeding is not typically necessary.

      Q:What's the shelf life for this product? I purchased some last year, but did not have an opportunity to put it down. Is it still good if bag has not been opened?
      by|May 1, 2023
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  You can use the product this year, however; the germination rate may decline up to 7% each year it is stored so storing for multiple years is not recommended.

            Did not germinate at all
            Spent 90 some bucks with tax on a big bag of Scott's Thick'R Lawn , Nothing came up or even germinated . Looks like dried seed laying in my yard , we did everything needed to do & put straw on top . Very Unsatisfied !! Now we have to rake the straw up , re-rake and buy Other grass seed & start over.

              Does Not Work
              I bought this product to repair lawn damaged by Fall army worms. I treated the worms a month before using this product and as you can see from the photo after 3 to 4 weeks of keeping the soil damp, there is still no new grass.

                  Disappointing Seeding Germinating Results
                  Purchased 3 40lb bags of Thickr Lawn Fescue. The lawn was prepped by hand weeding the entire space, aerating, dethatching, raking up debris. Product was applied according to instructions and watered daily for over 2 weeks. Very minimal germination. I would say maybe 2 % of what I was expecting. All the areas inside the lawn where weeds had been removed was open soil perfect for this product to germinate and fill in. It did not work plain and simple. I have a patch in the backyard that was literally crusher dust (fine ground stone for patio) that some seed grew but as I stated it is minimal compared to 3 40lb bags of product. On a positive not the grass is green where it was established. I specifically use Scotts products all season. Start with Crabgrass preventer (bad results) Summerguard (not doing this next season) turf builder (good results) and the overseeding with Thickr Lawn (poor results). I also used Scotts EZ seed Sun and Shade earlier in the summer with zero germinating results. Just seems Scotts seed is not meant for Southern Maine climate. Tried some competitors product and while germination did take awhile it grew in and filled in spots on my lawn. I follow the instructions use Scotts Spreaders and Sprayers specifically but will need to look into other options. Disappointed in this outcome this season. Also had state soil test done so I know what to apply next year instead of just using the products big box stores say we need to dump on our lawns.
