Lifeless lawns transformed in ’10 days’ with ‘fast-growing’ grass seed

Gardeners have praised the Amazon grass seed for bringing back ‘thick and green’ lawns

Heatwaves and continuous sunshine are lovely to bask in, but they can also cause havoc on lawns. Gardeners grappling with dead and lifeless grass can buy grass seed to bring dead greenery back to life.

There are many options available at regular garden centres; however, shoppers opting for convenience can buy bags from Amazon and have them delivered straight to their door. One of the most popular grass seed brands on the marketplace is GroundMaster.

Its most popular offering is the Premium Lawn Grass Seed, which comes in a range of bag sizes from as small as 500grams to as large as 25kg sacks. Prices range from £10 for the smallest bag to £124.99 for the largest option.

The grass seeds offer coverage up to 60 square meters per kg. They are also pet-friendly and can revitalise lawns in any season. GroundMaster’s Premium Lawn Grass Seed has more than 5,000 customer reviews and ratings on Amazon.

One shopper said they saw results in ’10 days’, after following the instructions on the pack. They added: “I also sprinkled a thin layer of fine soil over the top to hide the seed from the birds that would have eaten it all.

“I kept the seed watered – never letting it dry out, then about 10 days later the seed just burst into life. I’ve now got a nice green lawn. This is the second 5KG bag of this I’ve bought, and I’d buy it if I needed any more.”

Elsewhere, B&Q sells Verve Universal Grass seeds at £10 for a 1.5kg box. The product has glowing reviews, with one shopper writing: “Bought before and renewed lawn resulting in thick, lush grass even in shady areas.”

Specific shade-tolerant grass seed is also available, like the Gro-Sure Shady Lawn Seed, which costs £9 at Wickes. Its blue coating keeps birds away and nourishes the seed.

Another Amazon shopper who used GroundMaster’s Premium Lawn Grass Seed said they saw ‘fast-growing’ results and a ‘lovely, strong-looking grass’. They continued: “Approximately three weeks after planting and watering the seeds well, the grass started to come through, and it’s looking really good.

“It still needs to thicken up a bit, but I am pleased with its progress so far and would recommend this seed.”

A third user had less impressive results: “Had grown well in most areas, however, (there were) patches in other areas where it has struggled to grow. Not quite living up to expectations.”

An additional customer said: “Great value for money! I’m forever buying boxes of seed, especially in the spring, to bring the grass back to life after winter. I decided to go for a 5kg bag to help me, as the lawn was so patchy.

“Definitely worth buying. The grass has come through really thick and green! I’ve bought some more for my dad now.”
