GreenThumb Grass Seed

This blend combines turf-type tall fescue and Kentucky bluegrass, which are known for their deep root systems and ability to recover quickly from wear. The tall fescue provides the durability needed for heavy foot traffic, while the Kentucky bluegrass fills in gaps to create a denser, more resilient turf.

The proprietary coating acts like a sponge, retaining moisture directly around the seed to prevent it from drying out during the critical germination phase. By keeping the seed hydrated and providing a small dose of starter fertilizer, it helps the grass establish roots faster, even if your watering schedule isn't perfect.

A single 3 lb bag provides coverage for approximately 1,500 square feet. If you are overseeding an existing lawn, you may be able to stretch this slightly, but for bare patches or new lawns, it is best to stick to the recommended coverage rate to ensure a thick, uniform result.

Yes, this is an excellent choice for patching high-traffic areas like pathways or play zones. Because it is designed to be aggressive and resilient, it will blend well with most existing fescue or bluegrass lawns while providing the extra durability needed for those high-wear spots.

No, you don't need to add extra fertilizer at the time of planting. The seeds are already encased in a coating that includes fertilizer, which provides the necessary nutrients for initial growth and establishment.
