Latest date to seed grass

legend99 · 2020-09-05 18:17:53

Hi, I know there are multiple variables at play here - weather in particular - but any sense of how late one can seed grass. I'm in the south of the country and likely to go with the number one mix as it is the front lawn - so no rye grass. Thanks

Lol. Thanks! It's my second go this year. The sowing I did in May has become infested with the wrong grass. Think it was because I did a full till to aerate the soil and I guess j brought up loads of dormant stuff which took off. Fingers crossed for the second attempt!
