Anyone reseeding this year already?

Post by napper » August 15th, 2017, 3:42 pm

I put seed down on 8/10/17 and we have have 4.35 inches since then and it is still raining. I'm guessing I won't have any germination so I'm ordering more seed today.

I seeded Sunday, lots of rain last night. I'd guess 2.5-3.5", came and went quickly. My yard looks like a beach.
You will germinate, but you may have a few areas that need to be reseeding. Unless there are bare areas, i
I would try to wait before reseeding.
Crappy situation... I'm with you.

I seeded a few days before you did, but I'm in Wyoming. We've maybe gotten an inch of rain since. The biggest bug for me is I don't have a full gutter, so I got a nice neat straight line of Pete moss and seed washed away

I ended up with 7.4" total Saturday though yesterday. I'm going to wait a little longer and see if anything comes up but I did order more seed just in case.
