The grass seed wars!!! Never heard two companies go at it this much...not even coke and pepsi!

Pennington using Scotts name in the commercial and Scotts calls them 'the other guys" even spent the money have someone create the red headed irish guy to win the war!

10 pounds of seed+ 10 pounds of filler v 20 pounds of seed!

Who knew.

My lawn is about 4x6, and the condo assoc takes care of it, so not a caring party

Whenever an advertiser uses "the other guys" it means that they are the dominant market name. Whenever an advertiser uses the actual name of the competition it means they aren't the dominant name and therefore they are using that name to subliminally put the two on the same level.

McDonalds won't acknowledge Burger King or Wendys. Coke rarely references Pepsi. Boilermaker Rick doesn't acknowledge Phil McCracken.

The Scottish guy refers to a man named Pennington who says Scott's is loaded with filler in the latest one.

Personally, I find the "Scott" character so fucking annoying, I'd probably use Pennington's even if it were going to kill my lawn. FEED IT!

If you seed right and you're not a choad you have no need for water absorbing coatings at all. Just the damn seed. Pennington should advertize with "we know you're not stupid. We know you will water your seed. You won't need something to hold in water.".

I think they had one almost exactly like that last year.

So when you buy a bag of grass what percent of that is just paying to subsidize nonstop advertisement?

That's because he isn't competition. That would be like McDonald's worrying about a hot dog vendor.

I have a couple of bare patches in my lawn and used Pennington's on one and Scott's on the other. After two weeks, the Scott's is coming up nicely and no sign of growth from the Pennington's yet...

_________________

I actually purchased Pennington 2 weeks ago just because their ads are so calm and soothing vs the angry Scot. So far so good, I would give it the Hank Scorpio Seal of Approval.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

It's expensive and best used for limited areas & bare patches but Scott's EZ Seed if pretty much fool-proof. Very minimal prep and after-care, yet it still grows perfectly.

Worst one I ever heard...

Old enough to be seven, old enough to be ate...

scott's is better because it's pretty much idiot-proof. Pennington is not.

What is with the idiot proof comments?

You clean the area, break up the soil a bit and put the seed down. Water frequently. Grass grows.

water frequently.

That one usually gets me.

So you dont have to water the grass seed from Scotts? No wonder they can hire the angry man to pitch their product. They've invented a seed that requires no water!!!!

Actually, all of that. Would you accept lazy? It requires little more than opening the bag and spreading it. Decent trade-off for the money.
