I haven’t had any growth despite using a topsoil with fertilizer and keeping it watered. I can understand how it all might not have seeded but I got nothing.

Sad-Seeds did not germinate
Ive purchased this before and never had a problem....however just bought a 5 lb bag of pure seed prepared the ground beautifully , spread the whole bag evenly over my large front yard and watered as I should have. It has been 80 degrees all week so it got sun. Not 1 sprouted and its been 8 days! I'm very upset because I spent good money on this with no results.

    I planted the seeds when the temperature was around 70 -85F and within a week it started germinating and saw tiny grass blades but after that the grass turned pink (second week) and third week it turned black and it died (I didn't use any fertilizer or weed killer). Highly disappointed with this product.

      Planted on both fresh topsoil and a few bare spots in lawn. Hand watered every day. Not a single blade after 2 weeks. I live in Florida. Grass grows well here. I have weeds growing in unwatered cracks in my sidewalk, but this stuff won't grow at all even with regular watering. Don't waste your money, water or time on this product. .

          Great germination!
          I threw some seed in dead sod, and the grass grew. I threw it in builder’s Clay... and voila, grass! This spring I will be top dressing with mushroom compost first, then reseeding, and I’m confident I’ll get nice grass.

            Waste of money
            I bought 2 bags and 0 results. I used another (Cheaper) brand of a different type of grass and it works fine. Those seeds were bigger. These Bermuda grass seeds are very but I can visibly see them. Not one sprouted after 6 days. I will see if anything happens over next few days. In addition, the Scott’s weed and feed was useless as well. Plus my Wizz spreader broke after 4 uses. Lots of marketing but no real quality.

              Far and away the absolute worst experience I've ever had with grass seed. I followed the directions to the letter and didn't get a SINGLE sprout in two weeks. I tried again with a different brand and had much better results. It's possible the batch I purchased was expired, but I did not check before discarding the packaging (my mistake). That's the only explanation I can come up with to explain the complete lack of results.

              Scotts has always been my favorite for my lawn and it always does what I expect it to do and makes my lawn look awesome. However I still am getting my lawn in shape back from being invaded with snakes. The holes are not mending themselves, but from a distance my lawn looks awesome. Yes I would recommend Scotts Turf builder Grass Seed and any other product produced from Scotts for a good looking lawn.

              This was my 2nd purchase of this seed. It sprouted well but within a few days, we experienced a very dry, very hot (90 - 97 degrees) spell. Hand watering did not save the newly sprouted grass as the rain had done with a previous planting. Apparently, the drought tolerance describes well established grass. The previous planting continues to grow well.
