Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Sun & Shade Mix is a versatile grass seed blend designed to thrive in conditions ranging from full sun to dense shade. This 12-pound bag covers up to 1,600 square feet for new lawns or 4,800 square feet when overseeding an existing lawn.

The mix contains a blend of Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, creeping red fescue, and chewings fescue, providing medium drought resistance with medium to high durability. It includes Scotts Root-Building Nutrition, a combination of seed, fertilizer, and soil improver with a 4-0-0 NPK ratio that helps establish deep roots for thick, green turf.

For best results, apply in spring or fall when daily air temperatures are consistently between 60°F and 80°F. For new lawns, loosen the top 2 inches of soil, spread seed using a spreader, lightly rake into the soil, and water daily until grass reaches 2 inches tall. For overseeding, mow the existing lawn to 2 inches, rake thoroughly, spread seed, and water daily for at least three weeks. Scotts recommends overseeding annually and fertilizing every 8 weeks for ongoing maintenance.
