what setting on a scotts deluxe edgeguard spreader would you use to spread this grass seed.
I set it on #4 to over seed my densely shaded area!

Can I plant this in Arkansas in late April
Yes, you may plant this seed in late April in Arkansas. Thank you!
Where can I purchase Greenview Seeding success product? When is best time to plant in Okla. City, ok? What is recommended seed bed preparation?
Chuck, order the product from Home Depot. Have it delivered to your local store for you to pick up. Or better yet, make your order over $45 and get free delivery to your house. I always learned that the best time to plant is in the fall when the soil is still warm and the days do not get so hot that the seedlings dry out and die. That would be your decision based on your geographical location. Best wishes.
Can I put this seed down at the beginning of spring? I have an area at the back of m yard that is very shaded and nothing has worked. I know fall is better but I am tired of looking at the dirt. Thanks.
Thank you for your inquiry! Fall is the ideal time for planting and sowing new grass seed. We recommend seeding/overseeding in the fall when your lawn has recovered from all the summer stresses, and your daytime temperatures begin to be consistently in the 70's with cool evenings, and you have prepared your lawn for seeding/overseeding; you can choose to seed/overseed in the spring if you are able to keep after your seed/new turf with maintenance (ie: watering, etc.) to get it through the summer stresses and any less than ideal conditions.
What is the minimum and max ground temperature for this seed to germinate? Did it last through the cold winter and I hot summer. Half my lawn is under a large oak tree and I have nothing but dirt currently.
GreenView Fairway Formula Grass Seed Dense Shade Mixture germinates best when soil temperatures are between 50 and 65 degrees Fahrenheit and will germinate faster at higher soil temperatures as long as the increased heat doesn't dry out the seeds and soil. Temperatures above 90 F or below 50 F prompt the seeds to abort any growth and return to dormancy. Once established and properly cared for it will last through cold winters and hot summers in the northern 2/3 of the United States into the transition zone. Thank you!
