Scotts® Turf Builder® Grass High Traffic Mix is a self-repairing grass seed that withstands the constant barrage of high-traffic areas. Designed for the wear and tear of high-traffic areas, it is able to withstand abuse and continue to build a healthy, vigorous lawn.

For best results, plant seed in the spring or fall when daily average soil temperatures are consistently between 55°F and 70°F or air temperatures between 60°F and 80°F. Scotts WaterSmart PLUS Coating Technology absorbs water, feeds, and protects your newly planted grass seed. It absorbs twice as much water and holds it twice as long as uncoated seed to help prevent the seed from drying out, even if you miss a day of watering.

Water daily to keep the soil moist for at least three weeks or until seedlings reach 2 in tall. Avoid watering on rainy days to prevent overwatering your grass seeds.
