Review: Solid product, lush lawn, grew well even in a chronic problem area! - Had a chronic problem area along the side of the house where it NEVER gets sunlight due to the shade from the building and some large trees. I had tried various other seeds and planting solutions. This is the one that finally came through! High quality seeds that germinated fully and provided a lush lawn. They take a while to grow.. not for the impatient among us. Plus make sure you use some peat moss to cover the seeds initially so they stay moist and don't get eaten by the birds.. But after a couple weeks the sprouts came up and within another week or two the lawn looked great and it's been over three months now and looks wonderful. We even had a large family party a couple of weeks ago and the lawn stood up to lot of foot traffic. Very happy with this seed and will use it again!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much of this product is actually grass seed?  Why isn't the seed tag shown on the pictures?  What is the mixture?**
A: Great job on video for the seed tag/grass seed mix. Basically ~38% Fescue, the rest is not grass seed. 
This stuff does come up well in the shade, but like with most of the seeds now, you are getting less than 50% seed when you pay and the rest is inert ingredients in the form of fertilizer and coating. It was nice when a 5 pound bag of grass seed contained 5 pounds of grass seed...

**Q: Is this product good to use in st Augustine grass?**
A: The problem in planting it in St. Augustine is that the blades are different and the color is much deeper green.

**Q: Is this grass good with dogs who and play in the area put?**
A: I am not having a lot of luck with this grass so no it would not be good for dogs.

**Q: What are the actual grass varieties?**
A: Nearly all tall fescue varieties.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smart Seed

Grew my grass and made it greener. Will be ordering again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not the greatest germination rate but grass growing where none would before.
*by P***. on October 9, 2023*

About a third of my cottage lawn (north central Wisconsin) is under some 100 year old pines. This area has been grass free for at least 50 years due to the heavy blanket of pine needles it gets every fall and spring. Because of limited use in the fall and spring this has meant no chance for grass to get established. In an effort to change that we have been doing weekly raking for the last 3 years. We have also been planting seed in the area both fall and spring. The first two years we planted some Scotts brand seed which seemed to sprout OK but would eventually die off and not come back the year after. This last year I switched to the Pennington Smart Seed Dense Shade Grass Mix. While I did not get the best germination rate (approx 1/3) (no sprinklers, so we are left to God's watering schedule) what we did get in the fall came back in the spring. The spring planting also lived all year and looks healthy despite a very hot and dry summer. I seeded again this fall with this mix. Nature cooperated by giving us rain every day for almost 3 weeks so we got better germination (1/2 ish). Judging by the year over year increase in the amount of grass I am hopeful one more year of seeding will fill everything in. One thing to note with the Fescue grass is that it does not seem to fill in on its own, so sparse grass remains sparse unless you put down more seed. Overall happy with the product. Watering schedule is probably to blame for the low yield. Grass that sprouted has lived despite less than ideal growing conditions.
