These are junk with low quality seed. No way you're getting a decent oveseed across 2,800 sq. Ft with a ~6lb bag that's mostly filler.

I just opened a bag, def mostly seed. Rated 4 stars with 9K reviews. We'll see how it grows, but I'd say worth a shot if you need to fill some bare spots.

Rapid Grass is mostly seed. It's EZ Seed that is mostly filler, same with ThickR Lawn

What kind of grass is it? I have a stubborn side of the house that is all shade but I have St Augustine. Would this be helpful?

FWIW they appear to be price-matching Lowe's if that works better for you:

Price lies. The "sale" price is the same price at Lowes where its not considered a "sale". Never originated at $45 bucks.

according to a q & a in the lowes listing back in 2021


The current seed breakdown for Rapid Grass Sun & Shade is: Wendy Jean fescue 10.87% Fenway fescue 10.89% Momentum fescue 5.45% Vision perennial rye 12.25% Silver Dollar perennial rye 13.59% Jump Start bluegrass 4.09% Gaelic bluegrass 6.79% Abbey bluegrass 4.06% 70% seed and 30% fertilizer by weight.


At least it's all perennial, but typically you're overpaying for these bags with fertilizer (OTOH, fertilizer ain't as cheap due to the Iran war)

Yeah, no way you'll get decent coverage of 2800 sq ft with 5.6 lbs bag. Might get half that.

Just used this a couple weeks ago since it was on sale at Lowe's. It's pretty much all filler, not impressed

I would not recommend it unless you have common bermuda which you probably don't.
