It should be okay because the soil is still warm. But to give things a
kickstart, try my husband's patent method! He mixes as much grass seed as
he needs with compost, putting the mix into a wheelbarrow and turning it
over well with a spade or shovel. Dampen slightly. Then put it back into
an empty compost bag, fold the top over lightly and leave for a few days.
Once it's germinated, he sows it wherever needed and usually covers it with
a piece of horticultural fleece held down at the corners by some stones.
This gets it off to a quicker start, keeps warmth in but keeps birds &
people's feet away! Works every time.


Quite agree Sacha, did it myself three weeks ago, also keeps birds from
pinching it when sown!
Trouble is, it does give you a sort of patchwork lawn as you can see
where you've sown when the grass has grown
