Barenbrug Tall Fescue Grass Seed 5 lb.

Its tall and green. The blades are thin and delicate at first, but they seem to be strengthening and becoming more sturdy. A little advice on growing this stuff - I bought some super cheap manure based soil from HomeDepot and spread this grass seed with the soil so they mixed. I spread the combination such that it reached about 1/4 -1/2 inch in depth. When I say I mixed it, I mean I dumped both on the ground, and put no work into preparing the soil underneath, and then raked it. I watered it daily for 20min (length of time to shower and make coffee). Grass was sprouting in 5 days, it looked thick by a week, and now its been about 6 weeks and I mow it weekly. So far it holds up to my idiot dogs - one of whom likes to dig while the other likes to eat the sprinkler heads the other one digs up. My experience is very good with this product, and I will be buying it again next year once my dogs finish digging up the lawn.

I waited till it got in high 70s cleared the area scratched and wet good sprinkled seed as evenly as I could then as extra step sprinkled then layer of loose durt over then watered again came in one week

Better have black dirt, or you're done.

Needed some affordable seed to stand up against my dogs. It seems to be growing very fast.

Very economical seed. Germinated just fine. Was not really what I was looking for but, I would think it would be a great product for a new lawn.

A little pricey but I like this brand and use it every year to overseen the yard

I've used it before. I can't tell you how this batch will do till it comes in but I can tell you I used to use this stuff around old fuel tanks that got over filled . we would dig down about 2" on average then put down some good top soil then the seed. Walk on it . Cover with more top soil and then another layer of seed. It always worked for me for over 2 decades without having to go back and replant. I'm using this batch on a grave plot. God willing it will work since it's not going to get watered on a regular basis. Again always worked in bad conditions so we will see.

I was optimistic for this grass seed because it’s hard to find straight grass seed in the stores without all the weed killer/etc. I sprinkled it across about 50 ft french drain we finished and about 10 ft came up. Watered it twice a day(central Texas so it’s hot and dry as heck). Ideally it’s not a good time to sow seed, I know, but we didn’t want a mud pit anymore. I bought clover as well to mix with the seed and the clover did way better.

Good seed however too expensive.

Sadly, because the postal strike I never received my order. It was lost in transit. I was really looking forward to giving it a try. The rating of one star is not about the product or about the seller I had to rate the product or they wouldn’t accept my review.
