Fall grass seeding
In an area of about 1/4 acre I had loam brought in and spread about 3 inches deep. I spread it all out then put down Scott’s seed and gently raked it in. I put down starter fertilizer and watered every day. Then about 3 weeks later input down another application of starter fertilizer. I did this starting October 1st. We didn’t have terrible down pouring rain and the temps were reasonably mild for a New England fall. The grass came up terrible!! Why??

A lot depends on your location and what the temperatures were. "reasonably mild for a New England fall" doesn't tell us what the temperatures were. It's very possible your weather hasn't been warm enough for good germination.
