It can't hurt.

If these soils are blank of nutrients the % of the seed that get established will be very low.

We completed pond a year ago. The main dam did well with the covering of the ponds topsoil.

We added a "kick out" dam to funnel water into the pond from a secondary drainage. That dam was build from soil about 4 feet subsurface. It is really poor growing quality due to low nutrient content. Some of the winter wheat established but didnt take. Spring fescue didnt take. Summer bermuda didnt take. There are a few weeds that popped up here and there. I'm going back with another dose of winter wheat and some rye seed to see if something will take hold.
