STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
How to Use
1. PREP
- Rake area to loosen the top layer of soil and remove dead grass. For best results, add a thin layer of Scotts® Turf Builder® LawnSoil™ before applying seed.
2. APPLY
- Apply using a Scotts® spreader. Lightly rake the seed into the soil.
3. WATER
- Watering is a critical step to seeding success. Water daily or as needed to keep the soil surface moist until the seedlings reach at least 2 inches tall.
4. CARE
- Seed will begin to grow in 7-14 days. You can mow the seedlings when they reach 3 inches in height. For best results, apply Scotts® Turf Builder® Starter® Food for New Grass. Do not apply a weed control product until after at least four mowings."
WHEN AND WHERE TO USE
When to Apply
- Fall and spring are the best times to plant grass seed because seed germinates best when temperatures are between 60°F and 80°F.

Huge disapointment
I followed the application directions to a T, and after 3 weeks and wasting a ton of water not a single area has sprouted. Total waste of time and money, i’ll never buy a Scott’s product again.

Great germination, now half is dead
I had construction at my home so I planted this seed in late March (in PA) on an area approx. 15x8 feet, and watered daily. Germination was great and within a couple of weeks the area was green and growing. The Landscaper's mix had thick, coarse blades and was noticeably different than the Turf Builder Sun & Shade that I typically use. Now four months later the area planted with Landscaper's mix looks terrible with dead patches all over. The small adjoining area where I used Turf Builder Sun & Shade still looks great. I am very disappointed with the Landscaper's Mix. I wanted to try a lower price product but now it looks like the entire area will need to be replanted in the fall with a better product next time.

Not worth the money.
I bought 3 bags. Prepared the soil following Scott's directions. I was 2 bags short of the amount I needed because I put it pretty thick to make sure I got a good stand. In one week, the second two bags (planted in the back of the house) is up and growing, some with no water. The first 3 bags I bought, (planted in the front and sides) shows absolutely no germination with plenty of water. Same grass, same yard, same prep. I guess the first 3 bags were just old and will not germinate. Hard to believe, but true.

Will Not Grow
I bought 80lbs of this seed from lowes a month ago to re-seed my lawn. I have a few bare spots I was hoping to fill in. Still bare with seed just laying there. I eradicated my lawn last fall and seeded with 200lbs of Scotts tall Fescue witch worked great. I also have irrigation all set up on timers. This spring I had a few bare spot so I aerated, re-seeded with 80lbs of Landscaper Mix, and water twice a day with no results after 3 weeks. What a waist of money and time.

Didn’t grow
I followed the instruction. I payed close attention no to let the ground get dry and nothing grew. I am very disappointed. I heard good things about this seed but it didn’t work for me.

Great for Minnesota yards
We love this stuff!! The tall fescue blends are a great combination that are so diverse - from sunny to shady areas the results were great. No need to have different products for the different areas this one did it all and filled in so nicely for our Minnesota yard!! The results were full and lush and great water retention. To heck with all those rye and blue grass mixes, we love the results of the tall fescue blends and it holds up to all the varying weather conditions and is quite hearty... Thanks Scotts!!
