Scotts® EZ Seed® Patch & Repair Centipede Grass is a revolutionary grass seeding product designed to fill in bare spots on your lawn. This Centipede Grass seed grows in tough conditions, including scorching heat, full sun and partial shade, acidic soil and on slopes. Scotts® EZ Seed® Patch & Repair consists of high performance grass seed, continuous release lawn food, and super-absorbent growing mulch material. Scotts® EZ Seed® Patch & Repair Centipede Grass also includes a tackifier to help reduce seed wash-away and a protectant to help keep seedlings safe from harmful diseases. There are three easy steps to success: 1) prep the area by removing dead grass and loosening hard soil, 2) evenly apply EZ Seed® so the area is mostly covered but bare ground is still visible, and 3) saturate with water until no more water is being absorbed and seed turns dark brown. Plant when daytime temperatures are between 70°F and 90°F with no danger of frost. For best results, water when mulch turns light brown to keep the soil surface moist until the seedlings reach at least 2 inches tall.

1. PREP

• Simply prepare the area you want to grow grass. Remove dead grass and loosen hard soil to help tiny seedlings root.

2. APPLY

• Evenly apply EZ Seed® so the area is mostly covered, but bare ground is still visible. (Use half as much for thin areas). Only apply the recommended amount so that seedlings have enough space to access water and nutrients.

3. WATER

• A deep and thorough initial watering is the key to success. Gently water the area until EZ Seed® is completely saturated and no more water is being absorbed (this may take several minutes). Continue to water daily or as needed to keep the soil surface moist until the seedlings reach at least 2 inches tall.

Where to Use

• For use on bare spots or patches within your centipede grass lawn.

When to Apply

• Spring and early summer are the best times to plant EZ Seed® because the seed germinates best when daytime temperatures are between 70 degrees F and 90 degrees F and all danger of frost has passed.

Watering Tips
