[QUOTE="Bama, post: 92723, member: 1184"] Kinda like peeing in the ocean. It don't raise the water level up much. It would take a bunch of tankfulls to make any differance on 20 acres. You would spend way more in fuel than the seeds were worth. I sowed some bermuda about three weeks ago, I havn't had any rain since. It you could get it up it would soon die as there wouldn't be enough moisture to sustain it. The worst thing that can happen is to get a rain just enough for the seed to come up and then not get any for a while. The grass will burn up. For this reason I don't put any fertilizer out until it is up fairly well and the forcast is calling for rain. The ideal condition would be to get about a inch of slow soaking rain. Enough to get some moisture down for the roots. Thats about 550,000 gallons of water on 20 acres. [/QUOTE]
