Pennington Smart Patch Dense Shade 10lb 200 sq. ft. Grass Seed Bare Spot Repair with Mulch and Fertilizer, Green

This stuff works fast and made a big difference in our yard. We recently had some work done, and the bobcat left parts of the yard completely torn up. It was nothing but mud, and I honestly was not sure how quickly it would recover. I put this down, and within about a week we could already see new grass starting to come up. That alone was impressive given how damaged the area was. The combination of seed and mulch really seems to help it take hold and get started quickly, even in rough spots. It is not fully grown in yet, but based on how fast it started, I am confident it will fill in nicely. I am already planning to buy more to finish the area. If you are dealing with bare spots or a yard that has been torn up, this is definitely worth trying.

There is virtually no sun in my back yard. This seed germinated quickly and established a movable yard in a few weeks.

Great.

These arrived opened and damaged. No seal on either container which was shocking given it has chemical fertilizer in it. I still tried to use some, scooping by the handful into bare patches. Watering daily for 2 weeks. The spots I put it in have about 4 hours of sun and we did not have too hot temps here in Sept. Nothing happened. It disintegrated and no growth. Every time I try a Pennington or Scott’s product, it’s awful! Don’t waste your money on this crap. Look for higher quality seeds from Hancock. They’re worth it!

used on difficult areas

Purchased this more than once sometimes it works great sometimes not so much.

With plenty of rain, just in time for throwing seed, I am waiting for the new growth.
