It’s been only 2 weeks since I reseeded part of my front lawn with Scotts EZ Seed, and I’ve got positive results to report:  the grass is growing in well.  See for yourself:

It’s still early in the game, and Scotts calls for 30 days until full results are achieved, but I’m confident that this is going to work!  This is a relief, since the stuff is pricey at about $30 for a bag that covers 210 square feet.

As I mentioned in my initial post, I had to dig out lots of maple tree roots in order to prepare the ground for the grass seed.  Well, I guess I did a decent job, because the grass is growing in nicely.

The maple trees weren’t planted by me; they were planted by the town before we moved in.  The town has since started using Bradford pear trees as substitutes when the maples die.  I guess the shifted sidewalks were the first clue that maple roots grow close to the ground.

I still have a few more spots to reseed, and I won’t hesitate to use the EZ seed to fill those in.  Time to go pop some more Advil!

I’ll keep monitoring my lawn’s progress, so stop back for updates.  You can get them in your email by clicking here.

Update: Read about the progress through Week 5
