Q: When are the best times to use this for growing new grass back?
8 months ago1 Answer
- A: Hi Dee Dee — For best results, apply right after spreading the grass seed. This helps lock in soil moisture and protect the seed from wind, birds, and erosion. It’s most beneficial during the first 2–3 weeks, when the seeds are germinating and young sprouts are delicate. If you were asking about the best time of year, August through late October is ideal for cool-season grasses (Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, tall fescue), while May through July is best for warm-season grasses (Zoysia, Bermuda, Bahia).8 months agoHelpful?

hide grass seed from hungry birds
5 years ago
Needed to reseed parts of our lawn laid bare by heavy "new puppy" traffic, after watering this straw holds tight and keeps the seed in place, prevents running dogs from scattering seed & straw, as well as effectively hiding the seed from the birds, they have plenty of feeders already :-)

DO NOT BUY!
4 years ago
This is HAY NOT STRAW! It is full of seed heads! To say that it is useless would be too kind as it’s actually harmful and will ruin any area that you use it. Pennington is also dodging questions about use in vegetable gardens stating that is doesn’t state “vegetable use” on the package. Well, it doesn’t say grass either. It actually doesn’t say anything about it unless you count “seeding straw” because that’s what it is, only it’s the seeds in the package that they must be referring to. NOPE!

Waste of money

This product ruined my garden because the bag was filled with wheat seeds. I have a garden filled with wheat grass everywhere.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Hope it helps germinate in a hostile environment..
a year ago
It's easy to spread and covers well. However, it's a bit awkward to spread it evenly. I have great hopes that our grass/clover will sprout quicker. It is holding in the moisture and protecting the seed from the wind.
