I do it as early as conditions allow. Have done it as early as March 10. Never had a failure. It won't germinate until the ground is warm enough, anyway.

A month of wet weather and you will wish it was done.

I always seed with an oats crop, and want the oats in early for best yield, if that makes any difference. Alfalfa by itself germinates too slow and leaves the ground prone to erosion here. If I need some hay the summer of seeding, I take the oats off early as forage.

Too wet here for anything.
