You're just wasting seed because whatever germinates will mostly die in the summer heat. Seeding in fall gives two growing seasons before the summer
From the FAQ on the page:

Q: When is the best time to plant Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Heat-Tolerant Blue Mix for Tall Fescue Lawns?

A: Cool-season grasses grow best when temperatures are between 60-80°F. Early fall is the best time to seed because of its shorter days, cooler nights and heavier dews. Your most successful seeding time is right around Labor Day. Seeding 2 weeks before or after that easy-to-remember holiday gives your new seedlings time to build strong roots before the winter. Spring is also a great time to plant cool-season grasses because of its moderate temperatures and heavier rainfall.

Check the Amazon reviews for a picture that shows that 50% is the coating. Cultivars will be different, but expect total (desirable) seed fraction to be about 48%.

Great deal. In for a few bags, never bad idea to snag a good deal and store until fall seeding.

Man, I bought this around this time last year on a deal. Put it in the garage, and apparently mice and lizards love this stuff. Found the bag nearly empty when it was time to seed.

I planted in spring, and most of the younglings didn't make it through the Albuquerque summer.
