[QUOTE="flaboy+, post: 140829, member: 2489"] Mark, I just sewed some rye grass last week. I went and talked to a sod farmer who has a drill. He said he is selling his drill because it does not do the job down here with grass seed. He planted about 100 acres with it and about 100 by over seeding and the over seeding did the best. He also told me to just cut the fields short, get the excess off and sew the rye seed. He say "don't even roll it". I had just baled hay off of one field last week and I put rye seed out the next day. I have another two fields yet to go but will do the same on them. I think if I had the time I would have rolled them anyway. I expect to see germination in about 10 days. For the record, I don't fertilize my rye. It grows just fine on it's own. [/QUOTE]
