Can’t get a clear answer
Bag clearly states water 2x daily. Scott’s site say’s daily. I bought a faucet timer so I could water twice a day. Which is it? Once a day or twice a day? Should I send back the timer? Not one article in the Scott’s website mentions watering twice a day.

Hello Denbo. Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Heat-tolerant Blue Mix For Tall Fescue Lawns should be watered immediately after seeding; watering is necessary for seed germination and survival. Keep the soil continually moist for the first few weeks. We recommend watering at least twice a day (morning and evening). If temperatures are high, you may need to water 3 times (morning, evening, and afternoon)

Redesigned product is not worth it.
I've loved this High Traffic Grass Seed for many, many years but won't buy it any longer because the "redesign" mix contains so little grass seed that it covers very little area. I wish you would go back to selling the High Traffic Grass Seed alone and not so-called enhancers with a little bit of fertilizer mixed in. Sure comes across as just a marketing gimmick. Scotts loses its product integrity over this redesign. It would be better to just go out and buy another brand of perennial rye with a little bit of other varieties of grass seed mixed in.

Very Impressive
I have 2 large dogs who love to run and chase eachother. In just a little over 1 years time they have turned my yard into a mud zone. After doing much research of all the different grass seed on the market and reading reviews, I chose Scott’s High traffic seed and hoped for the best!! Well in just 2 weeks after spending a full day tilling, placing the grass seed down, adding some top soil and watering daily, the results are amazing!! Would highly recommend this product for anyone with pets, kids or high traffic areas. Thank you Scott’s!!

Do not purchase
Planted this seed and followed all of the directions. Not a single blade of grass has grown. It did grow a bunch of weeks. What a waste of money.

Disappointing Product
Scott's Fertilizers always work great and the granules are smaller than some of the cheaper fertilizers so I figured I'd try their grass seed. Filling a lot of large bare spots and overseeding , some came up and some didn't, after being kept moist, rains and sun. I've had better luck with hardware bulk grass seed. I'll just stick with their fertilizer products.

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Heat-tolerant Blue Mix For Tall Fescue Lawns and appreciate your feedback. Depending on conditions and the seed type, the grass can take from 6 to 10 days to start to germinate. Germination requires air temperatures consistently above 65 degrees F. Cool nighttime temperatures and fluctuating temperatures will slow germination. Cold weather will delay germination but will not hurt the seed. Both excessive moisture and not enough moisture can inhibit seed germination. If a weed control is used around the time of seeding, it will either prevent the seeds from germination outright or destroy the seedlings as they emerge. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

Great and easy coverage
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This help to cover some bare spots in the front yard that required the same maintenance and time to get grass to grow. The front yard gets lots of direct sunlight and I watered daily in the evening after sunset. Great results and the spots are covered with green grass!

Meh
The area I seeded gets full sun all day and I'm in southern California so I needed a heat and drought tolerant grass. I seeded the area twice and it grew in a couple square inch patches here and there. Now I've just got weeds. Watered every day. Been about a month. Not certain what happened but seems I'm not the only person who's had an issue with this mix.

Grass will grow...
This is pretty much Rye grass, it's the only thing that grew. I have a Fescue lawn, so everywhere I used this product to repair empty spots it's now just Rye grass. Doesn't look bad, because there is grass there, but if you cut at 4", Rye grass sucks.

Grows fast and thick
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For some reason every year i have bare spots in my lawn so this year I figured I would try this. It did take some trial and error but once the temperatures hit the right temp these grew in pretty fast, sprouts within a few or two, I definitely suggest getting some soil or hay to cover because the birds kept trying to eat all my seed but it came up really well through my cheap top soil and most of my spots are filled in and the rest of the seed I had I used to fill out my lawn which cause it’s to be nice and thick so this seeds works really well.
