I have used this to frost-seed prairie grass mixes with wild flowers and Forbes mixed in. Key to getting even seed flow and distribution is to mix Rolled Oats in with the grass mix 50/50. I premixed in a large wheel barrow, then used a scoop to load in the seeder. You can use this to seed during growing season by mowing, spraying, disking. After seeding, lightly disk to cover seed, then roll, preferably with a cultipacker.
