Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed High Traffic Mix – Self-Repairing, Deep-Root Lawn (Overseed up to 2,800 sq ft)

Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed High Traffic Mix is crafted to stand up to daily use while delivering a lush, green lawn. The blend emphasizes Root-Building Nutrition, a carefully formulated mix designed to encourage deeper roots and a sturdier foundation for your turf, helping your lawn look strong from the ground up.

This seed mix is designed for full sun and light shade, prioritizing durability in high-traffic areas. It’s less drought-tolerant, so steady moisture during establishment is important. For best results, seed during the spring or fall when conditions align: soil temperatures between 55°F and 70°F, or air temperatures around 60°F to 80°F. Using a Scotts spreader with the recommended settings can help ensure even coverage.

The product features a self-repairing quality that helps turf recover after wear and tear, along with strong coverage options: 930 sq ft for a new lawn and up to 2,800 sq ft for overseeding projects. Expect a vibrant, resilient lawn as it establishes, with a foundation that supports thick growth and a fuller blade profile.
