STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
How to Use
New Lawn
1. PREP
- Rake area to loosen the top layer of soil (approximately 2” deep) and remove any dead grass or debris, ensuring seed-to-soil contact.
2. APPLY
- Apply using a Scotts® spreader.
3. RAKE
- Lightly rake the seed into the soil to ensure seed is covered just beneath the soil surface. For best results, apply Scotts® Turf Builder® Starter® Food for New Grass.
4. WATER
- Water daily to keep the soil surface moist until the seedlings reach at least 2 inches tall.
Overseeding
1. PREP
- Mow lawn at the lowest setting and bag the clippings. Rake to remove debris, dead grass, and loosen the soil, ensuring seed-to-soil contact.
2. APPLY
- Apply using a Scotts® spreader.
3. RAKE
- Lightly rake the seed into the soil to ensure seed is covered just beneath the soil surface. For best results, apply Scotts® Turf Builder® Starter® Food for New Grass.
4. WATER
- Water daily to keep the soil surface moist until the seedlings reach at least 2 inches tall.
WHEN AND WHERE TO USE
When to Apply
- Spring and early summer are the best times to plant, because seed germinates best anytime temperatures are between 70°F and 90°F and all danger of frost has passed.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
Watering Tips

- Automatic timers can help ensure no essential waterings are missed.
Using with Other Products
- Do not apply weed control products until the grass is well established (mowed at least 4 times).
- Additionally, if you recently used a weed control product, refer to those product instructions to determine how soon you can plant grass seed.

Works great
I recently used the Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Perennial Ryegrass Mix to overseed my existing lawn and I am very happy with the results. As someone who has never used a lawn care product before, I found it very easy to use. The bag gave me enough coverage for my whole yard and the grass started growing quickly. I appreciate that this product is designed for full sun and light shade, as my lawn gets a mix of both.
The Root-Building Nutrition formula really made a difference in establishing strong roots. My lawn looks so much healthier now and I can tell that it is stronger and more durable. Although this grass seed mix has low drought resistance, I haven't had any issues with that yet since I water my lawn regularly.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Perennial Ryegrass Mix to anyone looking to improve the look and health of their lawn. It's a simple and effective way to get the job done, and I am very satisfied with the results.

Scotts Turf Builder
Great on lawn that has a mixture of grasses and gets irregular cutting. It filled in bare spits and blended well with existing grass. I recommend this product and plan to purchase more in the spring.

Works great (know what you’re doing)
1.De-thatched yard 2. Cut grass lower than 2” 3.Passed hand aerator 4.Threw down seed 5. 2 months later added liquid fertilizer
*Get a routine for watering going. (8-10am & right before sunset). You HAVE TO water it at first everyday at-least for 2 weeks (use a time or area sprinkler) Also make sure it is warm enough, Zoysia grows slow but nice and thick in the heat. Yes, this is Scotts Zosyia Grass seed.

Greener grass
I overseeded this in my backyard where the Bermuda grows thick. After just 2-3 days, the grass was visibly greener and growing. After just a couple weeks I could see some new grass growing In between the Bermuda. There isn’t much shade in my back yard so I’m surprised to see it working so well! Thank you Scott’s for amazing products, always!

Simply amazing grass seed with a BIG punch!
I can't express how amazing this grass seed worked! Our yard has been the greenest and fullest i have ever seen in the last 5 years. Use as directed on bag and you will be as astonished as i was. We have used numerous brands every year being let down with patches of dirt or missing grass in our yard. I am very optimistic when it comes to word of mouth but i usually try the product mentioned because everything else seemed to be a let down. Scotts Turf Builder Grass seed seemed to be exactly what we was looking for. We followed directions on the bag and within weeks our lawn was given life that it never had before. I can't speak highly enough of the Scotts brand. So far we haven't had a product that disappointed us.

Grows well
I planted the Zoysia grass seed in a sandy/dirt area of my lawn that had trouble growing other seed. After a couple weeks of good rains the grass seed came up after about 9 days and is continuing to grow. Similar to Bermuda grass so I'm interested in seeing how this looks after it really starts to fill in.

Grows nicely
I put this out with a spreader in the back yard. We have some grass but also some weeds. I wanted to try this option before Considering laying sod due to cost. This was easy to put down and started growing fairly soon after applying. It has helped the grass that we have grow better and have less weeds and more grass.
