let oit go to seed

seeding is Oct. 21st. Make sure you scrath it in well and soak it at
least twice a week. You`ll be fine. P.S.- if this is a quality grass,
let it go to seed before mowing.

Hi,

My backyard lawn needs overseeding. I wonder if it's a good idea to do it
right before winter. We have a few month snow covering in Midwest Canada

My thought is to overseed right before snowing, and they will germinate
early next spring after snow melting. Or the seeds will die in winter?

Thanks,

John
