Looking to drill in 30 ac of perrenial ryegrass and was wondering what type of setting to use on drill. Drill is an old JD-Van Brunt with no info on settings for ryegrass, just rye which I assume are different weights. Would I be closer if I used the settings for oats? Any other seeds close in size and weight that you know of? There is a chart on drill lid with various seeds listed just none for ryegrass.
 
For a 10 foot John Deere-Van Brunt, notch setting of 2 is 3 lbs per acre, 4 is 6, 6 is 10, 8 is 13, 10 is 17, 12 is 20, 14 is 24, 16 is 25. That's from the drill setting table in my JD-VB
