Seed from Tractor Supply after 10 days

Terrible company, don't buy seed there, it never germinated and all they have to offer is excuses over excuses. We went to buy seed from Tractor Supply and seed germinated in 10 days. Stay away from Hancock Seed and Farm, we spent $1,000 in grass seed and had no luck over months.

Example area with zero germination.

BOTTOM LINE IS DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! This is my first truly negative experience with this company. I used their grass seed successfully the last 3 years and now I had zero germination in the 50-pound Titan RX Turf Type Tall Fescue Grass Seed, costing $220. I worked two days preparing the soil, raking, seeding the yard and spreading 7 cubic yards of top soil. After 4 weeks of watering, based on their instructions, I contacted Hancock Seed to let them know my zero germination issue. The representative sent me a questionnaire, see below. "Hancock Seed stands by its products, and is happy to assist you if you are dissatisfied with your purchase. Please fill out this brief claim form below as well as remit pictures of the seeded area to let us know what you experienced so we can better assist you with the issues you had. When did you plant the seed? September 8th and 9th What depth did you plant the seed at? roughly 1/4 to 1/2 inch Did you cover with anything, such as straw or hay? no What was your watering schedule after distributing seed? every day when it did not rain. Did you use herbicide or fertilizer? What varieties? Scotts Turf Builder Lawn Starter in early September Was the ground pre-vegetated or bare prior to planting? raked the ground prior to seeding like in previous years" After trying to get a response for 10 days, I was finally contacted back where the representative said they received the germination report saying 93% success. I said I am having 0% success and running out of time. The representative said they would talk to the owners and get back to me...guess what, never received a response 10 days later. My grass seed still has not germinated. They obviously do not stand behind their products and very disappointed in lack of response. I went to buy Rebel Elite which I know will germinate. AVOID THIS COMPANY!

The grass that grew from the seville plugs, in the back is green and lush; the grass in the foreground is scrappy.

They even took the time to walk me through the proper way to seed my lawn and now I have nice green grass for my kids to play on again!
