[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 619120, member: 9"] Two of the most important things when broadcasting seed: (1) Broadcast in slightly moist soil and then hope for more rain over the next 2 weeks. (2) Hope the birds don't find your seed! In our area about the only thing I have success with broadcasting is Ryegrass (not cereal rye) seed. It is small seed and drops down into the grass thatch or small holes in ground. When I've tried broadcasting small grains (e.g., oats), the blackbirds eat the seed as fast as they hit the ground...seems birds can find a seed from 10,000 feet altitude or 2 miles away!! LOL! Other than that, I will water the ryegrass seed in good using portable sprinkler units for a week or so. [/QUOTE]
