When to Plant Rye Grass?

The best time is mid-September to mid-October, but if you could get a seedbed prepped now, you would probably be alright getting it in by mid-november. Hopefully we get some rain, otherwise, I wouldn't expect much of a response.

Need rain before doing much. Birds wil enjoy the seed out right now

La sports man had a great article on when to plant last week.

Best thing to do is check with your local AgCenter or NRCS office. They will be able to recommend planting dates for your area specifically.

I would imagine this is what LA Sportsman based their article on

Depends on what you planting.

When we plant our athletic fields, they are prepped to where seed makes instant soil contact and will grow quickly. We plant those in early November. Or whenever the 85+ degree days are gone.

For food plots or pasture type Rye, I'd say early October as long as you have rain.

As long as you have direct contact to dirt you can plant any time between October and January.
