Featured Comments

For Northern Lawns only just FYI
There are you tube video suggest buying just grass seed and fertilizer separately is cheaper. This bag does not have that much grass seed as it is filled with soil and fertilizer. Just saying
40lbs is cheaper if you need more than 2 👍 bags

Just picked up a 40lb bag since I like the fact Amazon will deliver to door. My neighbor uses this stuff and swears by it. His lawn is immaculate while mine is bare and brown. Let's see how it goes this year.

This isn't a good deal. Cheaper locally plus it's even cheaper to just get seed.

Rye? That is a rip off..it dies after one season
I think you're confusing annual ryegrass (temporary starter seed used into prevent erosion while other varieties germinate) with perennial ryegrass, which is a turf grass.

For reference, my yard is primarily perennial rye because I prefer the blade width and the ease of over seeding/quick germination. KBG is great if you have irrigation and don't mind the cost of maintenance.

Quote from Flippingking22 :
Everybody who says this is a waste of money has no idea what they're talking about. Can you buy your own grass seed? Yes. Can you buy your own fertilizer? Yes. Can you attempt to mix the two correctly? Yes. Will it turn out as good as the very specialized mixing machinery Scotts has? No.
I agree, don't want to deal with research and shopping when Prime delivers to my door tomorrow. Time is money they say and I just did a thatch job today with that little Sun Joe electric, paid for itself in one day.

Yup this is a waste of money. Just buy the seed and everything else separately and you will save a lot. These mixed bags are a rip off.

Even at this price?

I just bought a 25lb bag from Costco for $55 after it's been discounted, originally $65. This deal here would make it $34 for 2 bags (24lbs).

I bought that same bag or premix and it only covers a very small portion of your lawn. It is mostly dirt and a small amount of seeds. The dirt is useless. If you buy a 15lb bag of seed, a bail of peat moss and top soil you will cover sooooo much more ground. Trust me, these premix bags are a scam.

So long as they are all similar turfgrasses. Note that some grow via rhizomes and others are bunch grasses, so you might be wasting seed if one variety has a growth pattern that dominates others.

In general, you want a mix of several similar varieties and several species of the same variety to provide characteristics from each and ensure stress and disease doesn't wipe out your lawn.

I doubt it would, because the variety of seed in this bag is not heat or drought tolerant. You need some bermuda in the mix and this doesn't.

Waste of money. Youre paying for dirt.
Buy seed seperate, buy feed seperate.

Same as any chemicals - always buy concentrate
no dirt.. " The grass seed, fertilizer, and soil improver blend"
