can I use this for grass seed?

My only response to your question is that the volume controls can be set to a very small quantity. Also, the retractable right side guard will minimize loss of seed when spreading.

Yes, check your bag of grass seeds (instructions) as to which spreader to use for seeding your lawn.

I did and it worked great. The "Pro Edge" feature let me spread seed right up to the non grass areas with no problem.

Yes, depending on seed size. You will have to test and adjust a couple of times.

I have not done a search on this particular grass seed, and as I have very sandy soil, even after adding top soil and manure, I have not been able to grow this seed. I am thinking I will try again in the Fall when it is cooler, and hopefully more rainfall. Janet

I believe so...I used it for plants I bought (vegetables) in 6 packs...but I believe I have used it for chilies etc. If it did not burn the tender roots on 6 packs, I would think it would be okay for seeds.

Have never used it for the seeds you have listed, but know it will grind coffee beans up to an almost dust.Have enjoyed it, when I do decided to grind coffee beans.

i don't see why not. i planted it in nw wyoming. the temperatures here get down below freezing, limited rain fall and the soil is poor. it came up within 10 days. and has already started coming back although the temperatures are still low. it is the only grass seed i have had any luck with.

Correct. Get a large plastic tray from the garden shop and put under the seed tray. This way you won't waste water.

Hello, I don't think grass seed would not fit through the holes. The holesare just big enough for groung herbs and spices.

It would not be good for nyger seed. The holes are too big. We use Black sunflower seed in it and the finches love using it and some other small birds. Black sunflower is cheaper for us. I have to fill it about every day. It has worked well for us and has lasted thru 2 Wisconsin winters

Yes, you be able to use it to grind seeds. The blades are close enough together to be used for that.

No I don't think so . The holes are too big. You need one that is made for poppy seeds.

The openings are pretty small....a normal mixed seed with sunflower and corn pieces etc. would be too large for the openings. I'd say it's better suited to just niger seed.

If I had a large area to seed I would definitely use this spreader, utilizing one of the smaller setting numbers. You'll need to check the specs on the seed product itself for the recommended settings; if this is not easily obtainable sometimes you can contact the manufacturer (Earthway) for their guidelines. But the range of settings for the Earthway spreader makes it very versatile.

Don't know....I've only used it for grass seed and fertilizer and it doesn't work great for that either.

You can but you must make sure that any seeds, sunflower chips, etc., are small... the size of red or white millet (max). Anything bigger will clog the openings.

Yes, it works quite well at loosening the soil for seeding. That is one of the reasons I bought it.
