Default preparing soil for grass seed (weed killer)?

A good few years ago here in South Wales I sowed grass seed on Boxing
day and had a good green cover before the end of Jan.
Grass is a lot tougher than people give it credit for, and as long as
the ground is still warm then it will grow.


That's interesting, and useful to know! Probably wise to minimise the risk
(say, of being hit by a freak freeze) by doing it in mid autumn though.
