In order to complete the experiment prior to Missouri’s lawn care season, we conducted the test in Florida due to its ideal weather conditions in late winter & early spring.Īll test photos were captured at 9 am to maintain consistency & the daily weather forecast is provided throughout the duration of the experiment. The watering protocol we followed was twice a day: once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Our Test Controlsįor this test, we used 4-inch aluminum trays that were filled with three inches of a combination of local soil and the grass seed. But, is it twice as much? It’s hard to tell for certain but there was certainly more seed in Pennington’s sample. Pennington claims they use two times the seed that Scotts uses.Įxamining the samples side by side it is evident that Pennington One Step Complete uses far more seed than Scotts EZ seed. They say they use more seed than Scott’s and a better mulch.
#SCOTTS GRASS SEED PATCH#
Pennington claims that not all patch products are created equal. Several online reviews of Scott’s EZ Seed noted this product as being great for filling in your lawn’s stubborn bare spots. The bag of Scott’s purchased had very little seed mixed with a significant amount of mulch, I found the seed to be very tiny and fine, like millet. Scott’s claims to use an all-natural seed that holds more water than Pennington One Step Complete seed.

Scotts EZ Seed was slightly more expensive than Pennington One Step Seed. We decided to test:Īll products were purchased at a local store – we did not contact Scotts or Pennington. To determine which grass seed is best for your lawn, we conducted a grow test to determine which seed you should choose. Our customers are always asking us which grass seed is best for their lawn, so we decided to conduct a Pennington vs Scotts lawn seed test to see which seed produced the best results.
