That depends on the amount and intensity of the wind in your area. If you live in a place with no wind, expect to see the seeds just falling to the ground. However, in a hurricane you may find seeds miles away.
When they get to puffballs, they just fly on the wind, mostly .
Their seeds break off a not fully developed dandelion, fly in the winds and can land anywhere. Once they land, all they need is water to start growing a dandelion plant.
Some plants have seeds are borne by wind such as dandelion, cottonwood, and maple "helicopters."
Dandelion seeds are dispersed by the wind and apple seeds require physical movement i.e. animal or water movement.

Dandelion seeds have adapted to be spread far and wide by the wind.
Their seeds can, on the wind like a dandelion seed.

Dandelion seeds are wind dispersed
many plants use wind to help them. with the dandelion the seeds cleverly use wind power, this helps spread the seeds as far away as possible from the parent plant.
Paper aeroplanes can fly but some people say that they glide. Helicopter seeds fly if you throw them, along with dandelion seeds. Birds fly and so do insects with wings like bees, flys, mosquitoes etc.
They are caught by even the slightest breeze - making them travel far from the parent plant.
Two examples are the fluffy seeds of the dandelion and the rose-bay willow herb blowing far and wide on the wind.
The seed is very small and light, and it is attached to a cotton like fruit that can be caught by the wind and carried a long distance from the parent plant. By this method, a dandelion can spread its offspring very rapidly to far and wide places.

A Dandelion uses Wind to spread the seeds. When the dandelion turns white and fluffy, wind can pick up the seeds, since they are attached to the fluff. Next time you see a fluffy white dandelion, pull off some of the fluff and take a look. You will see tiny seeds attached at the bottom!
