User questions & answers

Question:	Does the color rub on to skin or toys
Answer:	It was not designed for trenching, it is more edging, trimming the edges of grass. It goes about 3" deep.
Question:	Does this come in bags? If so how many
Answer:	It would be great to use for cutting squares or strips of sod in nice clean lines. You would still have to slide the shovel under the pieces though. It’s great if you’re reusing the grass elsewhere as it’s nice and neatly cut. Hope this helps.
Question:	Is this shredded or like little nuggets
Answer:	Abput 7 inches at top, narrowing to point to break ground. Love it.
Question:	Does the smell go away
Answer:	We did not sharpen the edger we received. I am happy with the job it does. It is much easier to use if the grass is wet.
Question:	This says 2 cu ft. I do not think that is the correct amount according to the price. How many bags does this include
Answer:	Although I don't have sidewalks I use to edge where grass is over growing a gravel path. I think you'd find it a useful tool. It's very sturdy too.

Question:	What about flowers? How do I void not to get on them ? And also is it bad for the flowers will

User questions & answers

Question:	I have rounded corners in my landscape. Does the mulch curve
Answer:	Although I returned the permanent mulch....from the looks of it, it seems to just go straight and not curve.
Question:	Could you notch it to form a circle or oval around tree
Answer:	I suppose you could notch it, but it would take quite a few notches and I don't think the circle wouldn't be very "round". The garden mulch mat can be bent horizontally as shown in the picture, but only a bit. It's too stiff to be formed into a tighter circle without cutting.
Question:	Is it 120 feet or inches long
Answer:	Hello, this is 120 inches long.
Question:	How thick is this
Answer:	It's about an inch thick. Be aware that you need to tack it down every couple of feet - I used "staples" made of wire coat hangers. At first I didn't use enough staples and the mower sucked it up and chopped a piece out of it.

User questions & answers

Question:	can this be used in hydroseeder
Answer:	Not familiar with a hydro seeder so I cannot answer that.
Question:	How long it can grow after plant
Answer:	ＷwR, it will take up to 21 days for all the grass seeds in the Scotts EZ Seed Patch and Repair Sun and Shade to germinate.
Question:	Can this be spread in the fall
Answer:	What Zone you are in. If you are in the North, probably not but better wait till late Winter or early Spring. However I had bad experience with Scott on this Bermuda Seed package. If you read carefully, the 10 lb package actually has less than one lb of seeds. Small percentage is fertilizer. 99% are mulch which you can purchase it much less price. It also depends how many sq. ft to plan to cover. This 10 lbs package covers less than 200 sq.ft. It also stated gauantee to germinate in any temperature, even exreme heat, it did not happened that way.
Question:	Does this grass reproduce or spread
Answer:	No, Tall fescue is a "bunch grass" and does not spread. Over the years a healthy "bunch" will get a bit bigger to help fill in, but not really spread

Prep, Apply, Water

Scotts EZ Seed is a revolutionary seeding mix that takes care of the seed for you, so you can grow thick, beautiful grass anywhere!* Scotts unique growing material absorbs water like a sponge, expanding to surround the seed in a moist, protective layer. Just prep the ground, put it down, water and let it go to work!

*Subject to proper care.

Prep

Prepare the area you want to grow grass by removing dead grass and loosening hard soil to help tiny seedlings root.

Apply

Evenly apply EZ Seed so the area is mostly covered, but bare ground is still visible, so that seed can reach the soil. The mulch will expand 4x upon watering to help cover the seed and keep it moist (use half as much for thin areas). Only apply the recommended amount so that seedlings have enough space to access water and nutrients. The seed germinates best when daytime temperatures are between 60°F and 80°F.

Water

A deep and thorough 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). Avoid pooling water. When EZ Seed begins to turn light brown, it's time to water again. Keep kids, pets and lawn mowers off newly planted seedlings until the grass is 3 inches high.

User questions & answers

Question:	How many bags do I need to fill a planter that is 66" wide x 11" high and 15" deep
Answer:	Not sure it but I think the weight should be on the bag and in the description. I use it for my potting base. Make the potted plant much lighter and help in drainage.
Question:	how manu cu ft per bag
Answer:	My bag didn't say organic on it.
Question:	Has anyone complained about dogs eating it
Answer:	Absolutely not. These are not food-grade bean hulls or packaged for human consumption. The hulls are packed in plastic bags (probably not food safe) and I would imagine they are stacked on palettes out in the open. But: excellent mulch, especially when you spread it over newspaper. If you meant "compost tea" for plants in your garden then probably yes -- a great idea!
Question:	How many square feet does a bag cover at 2" depth
Answer:	I have no idea. I have no idea if they are gmo-free, either. I don't know if there is a certified-organic mulch of any kind on the market. It is the hull from a cocoa bean. It is a natural component of a plant = organic. Cocoa beans are grown in central America. Are you actually asking if the beans come from a farm that is certified organic? I am going to go out on a limb here and say "probably not".
