Customer Reviews for TifBlair Centipede Grass Seed

I looked around and found the best price for TifBlair Centipede grass seed here at DoMyOwnPestControl. I had previously RoundUp and tilled my front yard and raked away all the dead weed debris. I used the whole 5lbs bag of seed in my front yard with a spreader and covered the lawn with about an 1/8"-1/4" of peatmoss and set my sprinklers to water for 15 minutes, 4 times a day. That along with a few good rainy days have germinated a tremendous amount of grass seed in a little over a weeks time. Only problem I had was discovering the day after seeding my lawn was that I had a lot of ants picking up the seed. I ran out of day light while spreading the peatmoss the day before and couldn't see how thin I was applying it. I reapplied insecticide on the whole lawn and added more peatmoss. There's definitely some thin spots in a large area where most of the ants were.

This seed company always has fresh seed and germination is great. Would not buy any other brancd of centipede seed.

I wanted some centipede seed, but nobody in Tampa that I could find was carrying TifBlair. I saved some money and saved some time by ordering from DoMyOwn. The next time I need some agricultural material, I will skip the searching-around and go to the DoMyOwn web site.

Put seed down. Watered 2x per day and nothing. I expected some germination but so far zero.

Far less seeds then expected (would not have done anything close to 2000sq ft. It does take quite some time to produce seedlings. Not the results I was hoping for.

Seed germinated within 8-10 days and is looking good. My neighbor seeded his front yard last year and has really impressed me.

Had hoped for a little germination. Put down after core aeration, lightly raked to cover as best I knew how. Watered 2x per day to keep soil most. Maybe it takes longer than 30 days. At this point I'm going to call it a failed expectations. I'll update if it surprises me later on. I just ordered 1 (1lb) bag and put it out at a pretty high rate. Soil was good. Tested and amended the lawn soil before the growing season.

Crabgrass damaged several parts of my lawn last year. I applied this seed and kept it watered. It took about 3 weeks to start to see results but the spots are starting to fill in nicely.

I tilled my entire yard, spread the seed and watered as needed. Nothing. I tested my soil and made corrections. Still nothing. I thought it might surface this year. Nope. Obviously it works for others but it just didn't sprout anything for me.

I purchased 2lbs. of Centipede grass seed. I watered it daily for 7 days before it started popping up out of the ground. Very good product and I highly recommend it to others.

I was treating some bare spots with is grass seed. I prep the areas planted the seeds and covered with topsoil. To date nothing happening. Very disappointed.

  Expert response:
We do apologize that the (grass seed) you purchased is not growing as expected. We have spoken with the manufacturer and they have stated that the only time they have seen the seed fail to germinate was when it was planted too deep, where it could not get the right amount of sunlight and moisture to grow or prep work was not done completely. Seeding a lawn does take time and the right conditions and prep work to ensure success and if everything that needs to be done is not happening, then the seed will not germinate until it is done. Many people do not understand this and just throw the seed down, water for a time and assume it will work. They have advised us to ask firstly, what are you seeing at this moment? Also, we have been asked to confirm the following questions.. Are there weeds in the area that can shade/crowd the soil that the seed is in and prevent it from getting sunlight? Are you treating these weeds? Are you seeing any seedlings of the grass at all? What type of ground prep did you do before laying down the seed? Did you apply any type of pre-emergent herbicide prior to seeding, if so when? From ground prep until now, what have you done? Are you still watering the lawn, if so how often? How often are you mowing? We appreciate your response and cooperation in working with us to provide more information about your application.

I keep centipede grass on .7 acres in eastern North Carolina. Twice a year I re-seed a different portion. "Tif Blair" never disappoints. Comes back with no bare spots.

First time planting centipede grass. I had numerous dead spots. This brand works! Seed plus compost equals success. Will purchase again.

I have always purchased Tifblair Centipede grass seeds and this is the first time the seeds didn't work. I have them in Scotts Miracle grow and after three weeks no germination. I called and was told the soil temperature is still too cool. Never had this problem before.

I bought a one pound bag of this seed about two weeks ago to put on my wife's gravesite. There is a water source nearby and I watered it every day for the first week. It has not sprouted at all. Obviously, I am disappointed. I could have purchased sod for slightly more than I paid for this seed. If it does not sprout soon, I will probably go ahead and get some sod.

This product is a smart seed that will only germinate when conditions are right.

The seed looked good. Seeded it two weeks ago and don’t see any sprouts yet.

Planted the seed about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks ago and most of it has sprouted and we have tiny blades of grass everywhere. Appears to be good quality grass seed. Good price also as cheaper than everywhere else, including Amazon.
