Is it okay to plant grass seed in the middle of summer?

Question

I am in zone 7!

Answer 1

if you are seeding a new lawn than yes, but you need to cover it with straw matting to help keep it moist water twice a day

morning and night.

if you are reseeding a lawn than no its a waste of time

Answer 2

you'll need to water it lots and the sun could easily fry the seedlings. it's best to plant grass seed in the spring or fall when it gets watered by rain, but the temperature isn't too cold.

Answer 3

Don't bother, it won't last.  It may sprout & grow but will be weak & eventually die.  The best time of year to sow grass seed is the early fall.  Because this is the best time to do this (and most people know it so they do their seeding during this time), the best and hardiest seeds are sold in most garden centers in september.  Make sure you water twice a day unless it rains.   Do all watering in the morning and evening, NOT during the bright mid-day sun as it will burn the seedlings.

Answer 4

Not unless u r just planning on feeding the birds with it. Wait til mid to end Sep..

When r u going to emil or IM me?

Answer 5

Um, I planted some grass seed a few summers ago and it seemed to come up in the areas that were shaded but not the real sunny areas.  So maybe if it is a shady area summer could work but if it is a sunny area wait til fall.  Hope this helps.  Oh and do you know that dude that wants you to IM him or is it just a random creep?
