[QUOTE="BFE, post: 1826771, member: 28532"] Go for it. Seed your grass in a month that ends in R. Far south as you are it should be fine, I would do it here. I assume winter grass means a nurse crop like wheat, oats or cereal rye; they'll get tall enough to take the brunt of the frost by late winter. I would go with the CR, it's the most winter hardy. Plant in the dust, your bins will bust. Grasses will do better with dry than wet. Can't help with the Bermuda, no experience, so unlike some I'll not comment on what I don't know. Around here, pastures are heavy fescue. You'll see a clump of OG here and there. If you're grazing, I wouldn't waste the money for OG. Strictly haying, it will persist better. At least, that's here. OG likes it cooler than fescue, if I'm not mistaken. I'll ruffle feathers here, but I wouldn't go with the "improved" fescues. Good ol' KY31 will be there 100 years from now, the other most likely won't. It can take the stress. [/QUOTE]
