Seeding October 7th - doomed? Options? Dormant seeding???

Posted by Lawn_Hobby 6 CT (My Page) on

Due to extenuating circumstances (what else is new?) I can't seed the backyard until October 7th (South-central CT). (TTTF/KBG)

I'm starting to wonder what I should do, since it's getting late in the season.

If I put the seed down and then there's a frost in 4 weeks, I'd be in trouble, right?

I've got all my topsoil in piles, ready to spread.

That will probably be the same time im doing mine . Im in the process of killing all my Bermuda as I type . I plan on renting a slicer after I mow , laying the KBG down then. Im in southern Ohio.

Good luck !

PS . I seeded my entire backyard ( all new ) a couple of years ago in Nov. and it shot right up.
