Answer: yes
CreekSide LawnCare LLC
Answer: Yes providing it has water. With soil contact the germination percentage goes up. IF buried there is more moisture retention. If buried too deep it can be lost. Just mixed with the top soil is the best condition. A topdressing such as a sterile hay, turf blanket, of seed aid mulch helps in germination percentage.
