I love your video. I have to be honest, I never have used your grass seed before, but just bought a large bag for some lawn renovation I'm doing. I bought the seed without knowing much about your company. After wathcing this video, I'm glad I spent my money and support a good family owned company. Hope the grass looks good when it grows. But more impartantly, glad to support a good company that cares about it's customers.
I planted the seeds on a problem slope in late September. The grass started to grow and now it's February and I have complete coverage. The grass is greener than all of my neighbors.
Listen, I'm not into a lot of marketing BS, but I planted some of this stuff on my sandy-crap, highly-compacted backyard as an afterthought, and a month later I had a freakin' lawn. It's basically wizardry.
I used your Black Beauty Original last fall to overseed my small 500sq ft yard and I can tell the difference. Loved how it looked this spring. Going to get another small bag this year and do it again. Also trying to help my neighbor with his lawn and fill in some bare spots.. Thanks for the great products!!!
Have tried Scott's for years, my lawn has never looked worse. Going to give you guys a shot this fall with core aeration and some starter fertilizer and see how it goes. In Virginia Beach, Virginia.
I'll have to give this a try. Scott's stuff has always let me down, especially when it comes to weed encroachment. I live right beside a road, with woods all around, so seeds getting blown into the yard are the norm, not the exception. I don't mind dandelions, but trying to keep out the other, more aggressive plants, including grasses, has been a battle I've lost. My problem is that the soil is fantastic, the prior owner being a green thumb who spent decades adding organic matter and other amendments to build up the quality of the ground. Everything grows well, including weeds! I like the idea of the deep roots on the BBTF, but does it crowd out other types of grass and whatnot?
This is my first time seeding with BBU. I’m nervous since I got used to GCI cool blue and love it. I do want to try BBU on my friends renovation this fall. If all works out I will in my front yard next year too. My only fear is there is weed seed, although minimal, in the bag. Will this be a factor?
Our grass seed like you can see on the bag only contains .02% weed seed. Unfortunately all retail grass seed has weed seed because it is impossible to filter it all out. However, it is not something to worry about. There are two types of weed seeds- noxious and non-noxious or regular weed seed. The regular seed which is the .02% gets killed with a lawn mower or the grass seed outcompetes it immediately because they're weak and not meant to be mowed. Most of this weed seed is not viable. The other type of weed seed (noxious) is more dangerous and is not in our grass seed at all!
I have a side yard that the gas company destroyed for the prior owners before we moved in. As an experiment, I have have done nothing with this side yard except mowing 1-2 times a wk (my front and back lawns need mowed every 3-4 days right now with a intermediate renovation), and it looks awful. It's starting to stress...It's only 1000 sq ft, and I think I'm going to zap it and use Black Beauty Ultra come this fall.
Am I lawn care end I been trying many tipes a seed ,I tried Black beauty from Jonathan end one Lawn ,my customer she is so happy that the only Lawn dark green at the neighborhood
Hello. I am in Southern Indiana. Trying to decide between BB Ultra and BB Sunny. They seem pretty similar. Can you explain the differences and what your suggestion would be for me, even if not one of the two? Any help would be appreciated!
Same here. 49401 I planted some in my back yard and it stands out so much over the existing lawn that I’m considering it for the rest of my 7000 sq ft lawn.
It’s nice grass but saying it’s “dark” green is a bit misleading imo. It’s more like a bright neon green in my experience and even in that shot of it in the field in this vid.
Yeah, im pretty PISSED OFF seeing these fields of grass being grown and my yard looks like crap and everything i do leads to nothing but wasted money snd brutally hard work!!!😢
Well buddy you need to come visit my home because I’ve invested well over $1000 and the seed will not grow very sad used all your products and nothing just over seeded and very little is growing pretty much over this product even brought your deluxe spreader oh well live and learn

After having with Kentucky Blue grass in Michigan , I finally did the whole yard with Johnathan Green Black Beauty! Best decision I have made!
We're so happy to hear that!
This is the BEST seed ever. I will NEVER buy anything else again! Once you buy a bag, the next season you will never go back...ever!
WOW, is it that good ?
Went with Lesco last year, this year it’s Jonathan Green!!

@@Jonathangreen HELLO
Damn u just answered my question. Best time to put it down is the fall huh?

How did this work for you? I’m in the 757 area as well

Hello. Is it a good Choice, for Detroit Michigan weather.
Yes, definitely!
@@Jonathangreen OK, THANKS, IS THERE A SUPPLIER HERE IN MICHIGAN?
@@Jonathangreen hello ?
What would you recommend for Knoxville, Tennessee? I have two dogs if that makes a difference.
What seed would you recommend for Dallas TX area?

So what will you use going forward? Gci cool blue or Jonathan green black beauty? Photos? Thanks
So what seed wins?

Just planted black beauty on side of my driveway and all I can think about is doing the rest of my 103,000 sq ft lawn
Hi, is this a good seed for Massachusetts? Do I need to blend with rye and bluegrass ?
Yes this is good for Massachusetts! Black Beauty Ultra contains tall fescue, perennial ryegrass and Kentucky bluegrass.
Hello. I am in Southern Indiana. Trying to decide between BB Ultra and BB Sunny. They seem pretty similar. Can you explain the differences and what your suggestion would be for me, even if not one of the two? Any help would be appreciated!
Hello! How much sun does your lawn receive?
@@Jonathangreen I have no trees in my yard so full sun.
Will this grass do well in Memphis ?
Yes you can plant this seed there. We recommend either Black Beauty Original or Black Beauty SolarGreen because of how far South you live.
Where can I find sod farmers in my area that use JG BBU?
Hi there! If you give me your zip code I can let you know what is closest to you!
