P.S. - This is the best version of Scott's grass seed available IMO, it is 70% pure seed and 30% fertilizer vs. 50% pure seed and a lot of clay in regular varieties of Scott's seed mixes.

I wish this was on sale in the fall...that's when they say is the best time to plant it...although I don't know how accurate that is.

does rapid grass, two times faster, mean you have to mow twice as much

Late Fall or Early Spring are usually the best times to plant but it also depends on your location and climate conditions. I planted Scott's Northeast seed mix in mid april this year and have had pretty mediocre results so far because the weather was abnormally cold in CT for this time of year getting down in the low 40s at night. Just bought this and going to overseed now that it is warmer because they recommend to plant when temperatures are between 55 and 70.

You can also just buy now and plant in fall as all of the bags I saw of this product at Lowe's had a Sell By date in Spring of 2024. Assuming Amazon's stock is similar the seed will still be pretty fresh in the fall.

If not you can always return it or go to Lowe's/Home Depot and buy the same product if it's fresher and then just return the bag you got from Amazon.

No... it supposedly grows twice as fast as seed alone so you will have a mature lawn in a shorter time but once it is mature its just regular grass.

Thank you. In for 2 bags. Here in Northern Illinois we've had odd weather as well, so hopefully this will do some good for my overseeding.

Good luck, you're gonna want to apply starter fertilizer every few weeks after overseeding for best results. Amazon has a decent deal on Scott's Starter Lawn Food right now as well if you don't have any: https://www.amazon.com/Scotts-Tur...NrPXRydWU=

And definitely don't use any fertilizer with weed killer for at least 4 months after seeding!

I've been having issues ordering the bloom booster to FL. In the past, Amazon indicated they couldn't ship to me, but I was able to order it a few weeks ago. I wanted to order some more, but it's saying they can't ship again.
