repair your yard with scotts ez seed a.k.a. watch grass grow :-)

[beezer671]

I have tried different types of Scott's seed, EZ grow, Smart seed etc., and all is the same. Worthless. It starts to grow in about 4-5 days, blades are really thin. In a week it looks good, then starts to wither and die. At least 4 bags and all did the same thing. I finally bought a 3lb bag for $6 at local hardware and have beautiful grass now. I will never buy another Scott's product!

J'etends la graine en premier et ça pousse plus vite.

[Yewtoobnube]

@jyma2011 Thanx ...... I think?

[dieselbud]

I paid $29 for a jug at Zellers and in 10 days still no sign of grass. I now see this video is 2 years old...

[kfettou812]

Used this crap and it did nothing for me. way over priced and over promised!! half of the bag is mulch...i payed $27 for a bag of mulch! Try another brand that actually has seed in it.

[cyberone24]

hmmm im goin bald if i used that fertilizer is my hair gonna grow back maybe?

[jtran0809]

Well don't be surprise, I'm in here.

[feednskeeters]

I have just hit a low point in my life!

[GrassStitcher]

How did you prep the site? Did you till it or leave the dead grass etc.? Why did you use additional seed, doesn't the EZ seed already have seed in it? Did you only use that one bag for that whole area? Do you have a sq ft cost on that? When I calculated the cost per sq ft, it was outrageous.

[funknowhereman]

You'd be suprized at how many of us actually do want to watch grass grow. Thanks!

[Yewtoobnube]

@funknowhereman LOL...ok, then. Well in that case, you are welcome! And thanks for commenting.

[Pinolero1981]

Thanks for the video. I have dead/brown patches right now and I'm going to give it a try.

[Yewtoobnube]

@Pinolero1981 Good luck!

[beloit22]

@Yewtoobnube Wheres the follow-up vid with the results?!

[RJB032162]

THIS STUFF WORKS LIKE MAGIC!! OMG!! I put it on a small area in my yard on 6/30 and today is 7/9 and I have pretty green grass! OK??? I can't believe it. I plan on putting it on other areas so the lawn will look full!! I LOVE THIS STUFF...

[Yewtoobnube]

@RJB032162 That's fantastic. Appreciate the post. Some people didn't have good luck with it, but it worked great for me. Who'd of thought I'd get over 11,000 views on making grass grow, huh? LOL. Thanks!

[rsaxena3]

about how long does it take to grow?

[Yewtoobnube]

@rsaxena3 You should see grass in about a week.

[TomZentra]

I too had trouble with this product. Weeks later I still have yet to see any sprouts of grass. It was a complete waste of money and the effort I put into it.

ez Seed is the second bad product I have bought from Scotts this spring. I won't buy any more of their products. They aren't the high standard of quality as they were years ago.

[Yewtoobnube]

@TomZentra Well, sorry you had no success. Worked great for me last year and I bought it again this year for other bad patches and it came in like gang busters again.

[TomZentra]

@Yewtoobnube You mentioned in the video that you added more grass seed beyond what comes in the EZ Seed. That isn't the way it is supposed to work! No wonder you had good results.

[Yewtoobnube]

@TomZentra You follow the directions on everything that you buy and use? You don't try to improve on anything? I do. That is why I mentioned it in the video. My goal was to grow grass in the bare spots in my yard. How I did it was up to me. Adding more grass seed = more grass. I am not here to endorse this product, I am interested in results.

[TomZentra]

@Yewtoobnube I have had enough of this garbage product. Scotts is sending a refund. I will never buy any more of their stupid crap.

[TomZentra]

@Yewtoobnube I spoke with someone at Home Depot about this product. He told me off the record that an all-in-one solution is destined to fail. Now it makes sense. Scotts offers a direct money back guarantee because they want customer feedback, rather than retailer feedback, such as "Customer did not like". Scotts knows this product has a high failure rate.

[Yewtoobnube]

@TomZentra I do not endorse the product. I just put it on here to show how it worked for me.

[Melissamia9]

I should of took a before and after! it works excellent , its coming in nice green and thick!

[Yewtoobnube]

@Melissamia9 hey, i'm really glad to hear it. i'm using it on some other spots in my yard this year!

[Janett323]

I like your videos. Very down to earth and to the point, good honesty. I like. I have a question, if you do not mind. I put down this seed also. When the grass seeds didn't start I thought I wasted my money, but after about 10 days, we got some seedlings. I had green grass in an area of my lawn, but now it is turning yellow. It started off green and the yellow area seems to be growing. Any ideas?

[Yewtoobnube]

@Janett323 wow, no sorry. several people have commentyed that they didn't have great luck. i only posted it because it worked for me. I did some checking on line. not sure if this may help, but here's what I found:

Drought (or not enough moisture)

Acidification from dog urine

Nutrient deficiency

Lowered pH

Excess heat from the sun

Cutting too closely or too often

Killing action from too strong a herbicide mixture

Lemme know if it comes around for you.

[karenpato1]

You should still put hay over it to deter birds from picking out the seed and eating it......just a light cover ,of course and water over it to keep the hay in place better ...in case of heavy wind.

I used it......it's not bad.....gotta water the heck out it.

[BRIGHTMOOR1]

thank you.

[Yewtoobnube]

@BRIGHTMOOR1 You're welcome.

[danyeo]

I have found this EZ-Seed is no better than using regular grass seed, and since the EZseed is very expensive compared to how much area it covers, it's a ripoff to me. I planted an entire $30 bag of Ez-seed on April 17th. It's the 29th and nothing has grown, and i watered everyday. During the same time i planted regular Scotts grass seeds and they have been coming up now for a few days.

[Yewtoobnube]

@danyeo there ya go. maybe i was just lucky.

[danyeo]

@Yewtoobnube That, or this Ez-seed really needs to be put on in a thicker layer than what i used. I thought i put on the 1/8th amount it said on the label. Oh well, I'm doing ok with regular seed so why mess around with what works. Congrats on your lawn though.

[102701will]

I tried this product and the problem I had was if it dried out on top the seeds that germinated that had there roots growing through the mulch died it seemed to dry out quite fast

[Melissamia9]

I'm gonna try just what this guy did because I have some empty patches of grass . when you watered it everyday did you do it once a day? and for how long? Thanks :)

[Yewtoobnube]

@Melissamia9 I watered it every evening after work. The mulch part of it swells up and holds water. You'll know when you've watered it enough because it stops swelling. You could probably water it in the morning. I live in central Ohio, so it may be different for you. Let me know how you make out if you use it. I actually bought some more this year for a couple of other "bald spots" in the yard.

[Melissamia9]

@Yewtoobnube ok I got the areas ready to be seeded ( had to order lots of dirt ) I couldn't find the scotts high traffic seed only the ez seed. I'd really like to try the seed you did under the ez . I'll try Lowe's :)

[Yewtoobnube]

@Melissamia9 that's where i bought mine. it's expensive, but i liked it. let me know how you make out.

[smrkmusicgroup]

Nice how much were the bags?

[Yewtoobnube]

@smrkmusicgroup i don't recall exactly, but it was more expensive than plain grass seed. i guess ya pay for what ya get, huh?

[jangee]

@Yewtoobnube i planted seeds last week and still no grass. All i can see is only grass seeds. I am not sure if the grass is going to come out? When you said 9days i was really amazed..

[Yewtoobnube]

@jangee All I can tell you is how it worked for me. I watered it every day and what you see is what I got. Give it a couple of days and let me know.

[Yewtoobnube]

Good luck. You may want to try the ez seed alone. When I added the high traffic seed, it may have come in a little too thick, believe it or not. Let me know how it works out for you.

[BlackLight1880]

Cool! I'm gonna have to try that.
