Scotts EZ Seed Patch & Repair Sun/Shade

I get great results with this stuff IF, and it is a big IF, I consistently water twice a day for the first 3 or 4 days and then once a day after. The grass grows. If you let it dry out you’re done and have wasted a bunch of money.

I took a star off because it does not cover the area it says if you want real grass coverage. Basically covers half of the area it says unless you want one blade of grass every 6 inches. It is also a bit expensive.

I don’t know if it’s an issue with the ground where I live (St. Louis, MO suburbs) or what, but everywhere I put this stuff down, hoping to fill in some holes on the ground where more grass was needed, instead it turned that area’s existing grass yellow almost immediately. Within a few days after that, all the grass that was surrounding the hole I was hoping to fill in was killed. So, now after applying this stuff to fill in some holes, because it did nothing but kill what little grass existed around it, I now had much larger holes with no grass. To fix this, I instead bought pure grass seed. Meaning, I just got plain seed so it would not also get whatever extra ingredients this stuff had to help ‘patch and repair’ in my grass. Slowly but surely this act of using plain grass seed instead of this crap worked. I ended up spending much more than planned, but using grass seed only was the way to go. Don’t know what happened, but this stuff was grass killer, not patch and repair. Don’t buy!

As someone who takes pride in maintaining a lush and healthy lawn, I turned to Scotts EZ Seed Patch with high hopes, and I’m pleased to say it delivered a satisfactory experience overall.

Ease of Use:
One of the standout features of Scotts EZ Seed Patch is its ease of use. The product combines seed, fertilizer, and mulch in one convenient package, making it simple for even novice gardeners to achieve successful results. The application process is straightforward – just spread the seed patch over bare spots in your lawn, water it regularly, and watch as new grass begins to grow.

Effectiveness:
In terms of effectiveness, Scotts EZ Seed Patch performs reasonably well. Within a few weeks of application and proper watering, I noticed new grass sprouting in the areas where I applied the seed patch. The combination of seeds with mulch and fertilizer seems to provide adequate nourishment and protection for the seeds to germinate and establish themselves.

The product provides decent coverage per package size, enough to treat several small to medium-sized bare patches in the lawn effectively. For larger areas, multiple packages may be required, which can increase the overall cost but ensures thorough coverage and better results.

While Scotts EZ Seed Patch is not the cheapest lawn repair solution on the market, its effectiveness and convenience justify the price for those looking to achieve quick and reliable results without extensive manual labor or multiple products.

In conclusion, Scotts EZ Seed Patch is a reliable option for repairing bare spots in your lawn with minimal effort.
