Generally good plan Texas If you’re planting mud flats as they drawdown how do start mid July and go through the first week of September.
I prefer BYG. You need to water it unless time right before a good rain.

I’m doing a few lbs of byg as well, I doubt it will need water for awhile as springs run under it and the ground will stay wet for over a month maybe longer after being drained.

We typically don’t hunt anywhere near the wetland for at least 10 days make sure all the seed is gone

That’s why I’m planting in August
