Jonathan Green 12002 Sun and Shade Grass Seed Mix, 3 Pounds

Best seed product I’ve ever used.

Best seed I've ever used in many, many years. Recommended to me by a local nursery. Mix this with some soil before you put it down, top with peat moss, and water twice a day. You'll see the green pop up in less than a week. But don't stop watering then. Those little blades of grass need continuous watering for 2-3 weeks after that. Jonathan Green are my go-to products for all my lawn care. You won't be disappointed.

I bought 2 bags of the sun & shade mix and one of the dense shade mix. I did a small area about 6 weeks ago in the sun. There was new Black Kow fertilizer put on the ground and mixed with the existing soil. I had set up a watering system. The seed was raked in lightly to the soil. A very tiny amount actually grew, but died the week after. Then I tried a larger area 3 weeks ago, also in the sun for seven to eight hours each day, shaded in the late afternoon and evening hours. Patch is about 30' x 50' that I did. In a few areas, the seed started, but very splotchy, there is more dirt showing than seed growth. Maybe 25% of the area is showing any signs of growth. Blades are very thin like Rye grass, none are any taller than 1-1/2", some just look like fuzz on the ground, and I am seeing areas where the new growth is already disappearing. The third section I seeded, I used the dense shade bag, this was also 3 weeks ago. This area gets maybe a couple hours of direct sunlight and about 10+ hours of shade. Same result, very fine blades, barely 25% of the seed taking. There is nothing thick and green about this. And with Black Kow in the soil, it should be zooming upward. Black Kow makes everything grow strong. Either I got some bad bags of seed, or this kind of seed just does not grow well.

This seed works the best, have bought seed for over 30 years and this gives the best result

Great grass seed for sun or shade.
