Hope somebody with more experience than I have will tell us both. I planted some here in Michigan last september after I chopped the corn for silage. Drilled it in. The seed is kind of light for broadcasting. It greened up,but didn't get much size. Well,I took a pretty good first cutting of hay from it early this june,no fence around it to pasture it. It was pitifully dry here most of the summer,so I waited to cut the second cutting until way after it went to seed.The third cutting never came on.The roots died. You could pull the dry stems and the roots were just gone. The seed fell off when I cut and raked it. I thought after we got a few little rains,it would sprout,but didn't. So,I hauled a LOT of manure on the field,then disced it in a few days later after a couple of inches of rain. This was later part of august. In three days that stuff was thicker than hair on a dog. I've been going to post about it and ask if I should cut it this fall if it gets tall enough,or if that would hurt the stand and risk winter kill so I won't have it to cut next year?

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
