Once the alfalfa blooms, you had better cut it regardless of plant size. After that, you're just helping the weeds get established. And yeah, letting the weeds drop seed is insult to injury. After cutting, the alfalfa has the advantage against weeds.
In the spring, I drill oats with the alfalfa and make oat hay instead of seeding directly. At least that way I can get some hay off the field in June. I don't imagine the first cut of a spring seeded alfalfa stand is going to amount to much in the way of hay.
