Grass seed
 
Hi all, is it too late to put down grass seed now, we are on the south coast
and its still quite warm and wet here, what type would you suggest for a
piece by a concrete path and wooden fence, what do you all think.

I think it's too late, there won't be enough time to get it going unless
global warming puts a sprint on.
I sowed some grass in June and it was very slow, but the same seed sown in
September came on a lot faster. Bit of a mystery to me that

No. It'll grow at any time of the year, though it will e a bit slower now.

I've got some showing nicely - sown about ten days ago.

It is to the side of a path to our front door so not generally walked on but
there is the option if you need to.

Just one other thing is the " half a handful " metric or imperial :-))

Thanks

That depends on whether you mean the half, or the handful.
