| Do you know if it is too late in the season to sow seeds of blue gramma and buffalo grass. I just finished clearing the area to plant. Or should I wait till spring?Thanks. |

| Yes, wait until May when nighttime temperatures are consistently above 55 degrees. It's too late for them to establish now before the first frost hits. |

| Well, around Las Cruces all the wild gramas are starting to release seeds right now, so I have a hard time believing that this is a bad time for you to release their seeds... but, then again, I haven't tried... Patrick Alexander |

| sure they are, so is my buffalo/grama lawn but it is not very effective for the germination/survival rate to do it now. If you want a dense stand and not patches of bunchgrass scattered here and there, then I'd wait for more favorable conditions. |
