I’m trying to figure out how to get anything growing along the new road ditch. Recent rain has made it wash before I could get anything growing.

Thinking of reloading some Bermuda, clover, milo (just spitballing here) :ROFLMAO:

While someone holds my beer, I’ll use the scatter gun to sow seed. Will it stick and take?9B750926-6A38-4F01-B66E-3FEA1CEBCFD8.jpeg
 
Planting some runners from a running type grass would be the go there. We have one called kikuyu. It is very good at spreading out and covering bare areas. It is summer growing but really spreads aggressively in autumn, I think because it doesn't set seed this is how it spreads.

First put down some erosion matting with seed. Then put some hay netting down and a bunch of those bigger rocks laying around over the top of it to form a dam. This will catch some of the soil washing down the trench. I would do it in two places.
