Patch perfect what kind of grass

The product makers even call Patch Pefect "grass seed on steroids. Kyle manages the turf plots near the campus greenhouse. Probably the difference is the inner matter added to it," notes Paul after looking at the ingredients. Kyle spreads the Patch Perfect seeds in a small turf plot.

The directions say "just spread it and forget it" but Kyle has his doubts. Raking it covers it and helps it get more water," he says. So, Kyle rakes half of the Patch Perfect seeds and leaves the rest uncovered, per the directions. Next, he goes one step further than the instructions and promises to water the Patch Perfect plot at least two times a day over the next week. During this test, Cape Girardeau was very dry and no rain was in the forecast for the next week.

Therefore, this watering is needed to grow any grass. Now, get this: the commercial says this seed is so powerful, it grows on bricks! We'll test that, too! I'll check back with Kyle and Paul. In the meantime, I head to my photographer's lawn. Once there, I see a neighbor's dog made some "spots" in this yard, and wouldn't you know, Patch Perfect promises to take care of pet urine spots, too!

It claims to neutralize the faded area and regrow grass in those spots. And now, it's six days later. Here's what my test found. There's nothing growing," says Kyle. There are a few sprouts here and there, but we all have to get down pretty low just to spot those!

It's definitely not the results we were hoping for. As for the brick plotyeah, you guessed itabsolutely nothing! There's no place for it to put down its roots! Finally, the results on the pet urine spots are actually quite comical.

The fertilizer in the Patch Perfect actually caused the grass around the spot to sprout up! It definitely didn't cover the spot, as promised.

Here' s the kicker. You can buy a huge bag of seed for that amount and instead you get this small bag of Patch Perfect! Master Gardener Paul Schnare also says it's possible for grass to grow strong in as little as five days. Years back, he traveled to the Univesity of Missouri-Columbia campus and helped get the turf growing on Faurot Field. He got there on a Monday and had the turf looking perfect by that Friday.

He says the only way to get a carpeted lawn is to have a very high amount of fertilizer and seed. Whether you are just starting out, maintaining or troubleshooting, you'll find advice and answers here for all your lawn care needs.

Once evenly mixed, tuck it away someplace safe, at room temperature, for 3 to 5 days. With a rake, loosen the top inch of soil at the bare spot, then shake the sprouts onto the area.
