I can understand that. Just monitor things and keep in mind as summer goes on that the other grasses and such is what will be the hay for your fall planting. That’s the planting that really counts and what this method was really meant to plant…cereal grain, clover, etc…..We’re about 100 ish days away from fall planting. It would be good if by the end of the summer you end up with a field of vegetation at least waist high. Some of that will depend on how thick the vegetation may be. You just want to be able to completely cover over your seed and soil surface after you spread it.
