Décevant
Il n'y a presque rien qui a poussé et la seule place où ça a poussé c'est du trèfle ! J'aurais mis mon argent sur une autre marque avoir su. On n'a pas beaucoup d'argent et on voulait avoir un peu de gazon dans la cours pour notre enfant.

Deceiving
There are no expiration date on their packages I called Scotts customer service they finally told me where to look impossile to find unless you know where to look and hard to read the exp date was 2017 that was 6 years ago the store was still selling them probably they couldn't find the exp date either. I bought another brand with expiration date 2025 clearly labelled on the package this might explain poor or no results for so many who planted batch already expired. They lose 10% growth every year after expiration date. So glad I checked the date with them before planting the seeds I had 40 ft long trench to sow.

Je n'ai plus de plaques dégarnies dans ma pelouse!
J'ai acheté ces graines pour reverdir une pelouse très dégarnie avec plusieurs plaques de boue les jours de pluie. J'ai simplement aéré un peu le sol compacté et je n'ai même pas ajouté de terreau. J'ai semé les graines à la volée en arrosant abondamment à tous les jours et j'ai ajouté des graines à tous les 3-4 jours, pendant 3 semaines. Je n'ai plus de plaques de boue, tout est vert maintenant. Merci, tout a bien fonctionné malgré le manque de préparation.

Very spotty growth
Seeded 1 month ago with Scotts Topsoil mix. Small tufts of grass are now sprouting but stll have large patches with no growth showing. Have watered daily and it has also rained frequently. How long should I wait before re-seading or wait until the Fall ?

Great product
I used this exact seed in both the front and back yard. I had a lot of dead spot and now my yard looks great. It definitely filled in the spots. Yes watering is important to grow anything!!

99.99% weeds
After putting new soil, watering for three week all I have to show is weeds. 99.99% WEEDS. No grass at all. I contact Scotts Canada on two occasions and they didn’t have the courtesy to answer by emails. I would not recommend this product at all.

Follow Instructions
Don’t listen to the other reviews as they clearly did not follow the instructions on the bag. You cannot expect to throw down seed and have it grow without watering.
“WATERING IS CRUCIAL TO SEEDING SUCCESS. Keep the soil damp by watering twice daily for 6-8 weeks.”
I have used this for seeding new patches and overseeding and found I got quicker results than this (3-4 weeks). Once the grass sprouts you can lay-off the watering a bit and even fertilize for better results.
My lawn, properly maintained, with this grass is nicer that many golf course fairways I’ve been on.
