Scotts EZ Seed Patch & Repair Sun and Shade is a revolutionary grass seeding product designed to fill in bare spots on your lawn and is formulated to grow in tough conditions, including full sun, dense shade, high traffic areas and even on slopes. EZ Seed consists of a high performance grass seed, continuous release lawn food, and a super-absorbent growing mulch material. Also includes a tackifier to help reduce seed wash-away and a protectant to help keep seedlings safe from harmful diseases.
Three easy steps to success:
1. Prep the area by removing dead grass and loosening hard soil
2. Evenly apply grass seed so the area is mostly covered but bare ground is still visible
3. Saturate with water until no more water is being absorbed and mulch turns dark brown. Plant seed in the spring or fall when daily average soil temperatures are consistently between 55°F and 70°F, or air temperatures between 60°F and 80°F. For best results, keep kids, pets, and lawn mowers off newly planted seedlings until the grass is 3 inches high.
