Barenbrug Tall Fescue Grass Seed 5 lb.

I have bought several name brand grass seeds even with patch repair. I’ve always over-seeded the areas because a lot of the seed wouldn’t grow. I over-seeded with this product and this is the first time my growth looks over seeded. I am now trying to go back and thin it out. From bow on, this will be the only see I buy.

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.

Better have black dirt, or you're done.

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

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 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.

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.

Good seed however too expensive.
