Disappointed
By Tony on 04/14/2024
Used the 50 lb bag to overseedmost of lawn and start in some patches 3 wks ago. Trying to be patient, but checking again this morning in 5 of those patches I still see zero sprouting/growth. Have had good amount of rain, some soil sprinkled on top of seeded area and used a starter fertilizer. Going back to the seed Ive used before. Given 2 stars here in the hopes i get something to sprout eventually

grass seed
By Rick on 10/11/2021
Germination was initially fairly quick but the top growth is very slow in coming and the blades are very thin. After three weeks blades are only 2 inches in many areas and many open areas in the yard where seed is just sitting dormant. Temps and moisture seem to be ideal as neighbors' yards are flush w/ new seedlings that did not use this blend. These are not medium bladed seeds and tilling is yet to be determined for full coverage. yard was aerated and top dressed but seeds were only shallow covered with light dusting, even starter fertilizer has failed to make any noticeable difference. Will not be using again as i now have to over seed again with a different blend.
Still Hopeful

After nearly 2 weeks, with 2x daily misting, and 3x weekly heavy watering, still no gemination
Expert response:
Most grass seed will start growing in about 10-14 days, but sometimes it can take up to 30 days. Because you have seen some signs of growth with the 5 Star Fescue Grass Seed Blend, we suggest waiting to see if there is any more growth within the next week. It likely could just use a little more time.
5 Star Fescue Seed Blend Mixed Review

I bought two 50 pound bags about three weeks apart. The first bag was great. The seeds germinated and grew grass in about 10 days with very little weeds. The second bag also germinated and started growing fast but it had a lot of weeds and I will have to deal with weed control to get my yard looking great.
