Depends what sort of ground it is , Timothy don't like ground to dry

could be a little problem there, clover, herbs, seem a bit thicker around the headlands, this could be because the headlands tend to be firmer, or simply smaller seed comes out earlier than r/grass, from the drill. As we xdrill, thinking of putting majority of 'big' seed 1st pass, and majority of 'little' seed second, which should be slightly firmer. Sounds good, whether it works in practice, different matter.

You'd be surprised as it's very persistent

It's disappearing on my dry Timothy fields and increasing on my wetter land . But I respect that the seed experts will push it for dry land , I still put it on the dry fields as it's a great grass to have in a mix

Name a grass that likes it dry?
They all need moisture to grow!

Flat rolled before the seed goes on. That is not a drill , just a seed box , all coulters / tubes and stripped off so seed just broadcasts down .
Only put about an acres worth, no more, of seed in hopper, at a time .
Only Once over not twice, she's a reliable sower is Fiona
Harrowed in after with an einbok with several tines removed and on its lightest setting, drive steady.
Roll to finish.
