Seeding:

• Plant at the rate of 20-25lb per acre and no deeper than 1/4 inch.
• For inter-seeding plant 15-20lb per acre and for overseeding plant 40-50lb per acre.
• Plant 5 to 6 lbs. of seed per 1000 sq. ft. using a mechanical spreader.  Divide the seed into two equal parts and spread half in one direction and the other half at a right angle to the first direction.  This procedure is recommended when applying fertilizer.  After seeding, lightly rake or drag the area to cover the seed about 1/4 inch if possibly roll the area to have good seed soil contact.  Applying straw mulch is helpful, especially on slopes, it helps prevent erosion and retains moisture for quick germination.

   Fall and Spring are the best times for seeding.
