Jonathan Green 10765 Fall Magic Grass Seed Mix, 3 Pounds

This was my first experience with Jonathan Green grass seed. The results were outstanding. The grass came in lush green and really dense. The seed started to germinate after about 7 days. I think I found my new "go to" seed. This seed isn't overly expensive and didn't contain coating which usually accounts for 1/2 of the weight. Make sure to use some straw or cover the seed with a THIN layer of soil to prevent feeding the birds.

Grew quickly, healthy appearance

Started to grow within 5 days unlike Scotts

The seed arrived in good condition as far as packaging was concerned. My issue is that the label stated it was last tested in July of 2024 and it is now August 2025. This means it is not “fresh” seed and consequently, the germination rate will be reduced. I will be returning it and purchasing at a local garden center.

This grass seed is great, it germinates fast and it managed to sprout even though I have about 1.5 inches of mulch on top of the grass. I am using this grass seed for a really obscure purpose, for inter-cropping blueberries. The grass' roots provide iron to the blueberry plants, this is helpful for plant health because blueberries do not produce iron chelators on their own. It is quite impressive how quickly the grass sprouted, if I were to guess I would say it took about a week for germination. I will have to get some more of this product for my lawn this fall for over-seeding. I perused the reviews and noticed some folks looking for the breakdown of the seed in this mix. Check out the photo attached to this review, you can see clearly the seed mix breakdown. Thanks for a quality product, I will be back this fall for some more.
