Rolling reseeds

[Anymulewilldo]

Was dipping sheep last Tuesday and my neighbour nipped over and drilled 12 acre of grass seeds for me before it rained. We didn’t get too flat rolling it before it rained and it’s been too wet too get on since. Just coming dry again now. And the first seedlings are up 1/2 inch. The question is do I roll it tomorrow/Wednesday if it stays dry enough or do I leave it too it and roll next spring?? Advice would be appreciated

I'd leave it now until it's more established.

Yes I’d leave it a week or 2 then roll it personally I prefer Cambridge rolls. But either will do

Leave it now until it’s properly established, lambs will tread it in later

 

[Kevtherev]

Let it establish
Roll in spring

Pretty conclusive then

cheers chaps. I thought that might be the answer but always appreciate a second opinion!

Ask this in different forums and you'll get different answers

In the wetlands of Scotland, used to the unpredictable vagrancies of the weather, rolling in grass once it's strong enough to take ovine teeth and hooves is the norm

Yet in the inner city rolling in grass depends upon the quality of the rizzla and roach material
