I'm glad I checked in and see you have everything under control.

You need to quit over-thinking this whole grass thing, and quit worrying
about the temperature(s) stated on the bag. You have absolutely *no*
control over the temperature. Since the time that you've planted the
seed,
most likely what will germinate, already has. If it hasn't already
germinated, it most likely won't. Keep the area moist, gradually cutting
back on the watering, giving it a deep soaking as needed (around 1" per
week), and let nature run it's course. Good grief, man. Give the
"freaking
out" a rest.

holy cow man, thanks for the advice

Get a ****ing tissue. You've whined about the same thing, asked the same
questions, and got the same answers for literally, weeks. People ask you
for more information and you ignore the requests, instead focusing on the
temperatures stated on the bag of seed. In your recent reply to trader,
you
said...

But its only been 2 weeks. I think I should be persistent for 3
before I taper off watering every three hours to be fair. I will keep it
up
at least 2 or 3 times per day till then.

You get advice, yet state that you clearly know best. Whatever. There are
/no/ magic numbers, beit temps or number of times to water. You need to
check the condition of the soil, and go from there. That'll go right over
your head, I'm sure, and you'll post yet more whines about "the bag says
this temp, but it's a couple degrees higher". You've clearly got
temp-tunnel-vision. Maybe there's a support group for that, that you
should
seek.

Face it, you chose the wrong type of grass for the area, and spring is not
the best time to sow cool season grass seed. By *far* the best time to sow
cool season grass seed is the fall, but you'll never understand that, will
you. It can be done, sure. But it's a helluva lot more work, and the
possibility of disappointment is also far greater. If you want a bluegrass
lawn, cut down some trees. If you want grass in your shaded areas, choose
a
more appropriate species.

Maybe you should give up on the seeding idea, and just spend the money for
some sod.
