Reviews
It has already been 4
"It has already been 4 weeks after seeding. Not all seeds germinated consistently. My center of the yard is still open where as all 4 corners had 2 “ visible grass growth."
Failed to germinate
"Only about 15% of this seed germinated for me after 16 days even with constant watering. Very disappointed."
Lesco Tall Fescue
"Great seed, worked really well for me all of this year. This is my second order for my September over seeding."
great grass
"great grass"
Not as good as other brands
"I have seeded with this now and have seeded with store bought multiple times. I feel that this seed doesn't do as well as the store bought brand. Maybe I got a bad batch?"
Great Fertilizer
"It made my lawn dark green. It is a great product"
Q&A
- Can I mix the starter with the seed to make spreading faster?
- No, you should apply one at a time for a even application.
- In the past I used lesco, a very pretty grass but I stop because it has nut grass (nutsedge) in it. Everybody i knew used it had the same problem, I wanted to know have this problem ben resolved.
- I am unfamiliar with this issue. I would recommend treating nutsedge with a post emergent herbicide and monitoring moisture levels so as to not create favorable conditions for this ****.
- How long before sprouts
- 7-10 days if installed and prepaired correctly
- Does this grow in clumps l don’t like grass that grows in clumps
- Tall fescue grows in clumps. However, when installed correctly, you will not see any clumps and enjoy a nice dense dark green lawn.
- I live in dallas Texas and I want to know if this tall fescue grass is recommended to survive the heat and cold all year round,,, I had Bermuda grass but I have trees it does not survive and I would like you to recommend me one that is for the whole year and that is tolerant to little sun and shade
- You can plant tall fescue but it is certainly going to struggle during the summer months in Texas. It may be better to enlarge the bed under the tree.
