Oh yeah……I think it would an awesome idea in smaller fields where folks were having a hard time growing enough OM to get out of that initial hole. What I think would be really good to do to get someone out of the hole is to cover the field in hay and then add a coating of chicken litter over that.

I am thinking of trying it. Think I will look for a few bales and leave them in the weather through the winter then spread on plot in spring and disk it in. Only thing about the chicken litter is that I have a bunch of turkeys, and don't know the impact that would have on them. Thinking if I can get cow manure!

If you're gonna disk it then I'd do it very lightly. You want to leave a lot of that hay on the surface.

People ask questions with all kinds of scenarios on these threads. Something you’ll hear me answer with over and over again is that cereal rye is your best friend when getting started. I’m not saying it’ll work in any and every situation but it’s about the most fail proof option you have in terms of cereal grains. This is cereal rye that I simply broadcast after mowing this bottom. I'm just showing how easily this stuff sprouts and takes root.....

Is the cereal rye good for a wood plot with little sun light? Regular rye grass grows there but not much else other than rocks.

Clover is your best friend for shady spots. If ryegrass will grow there then i'm sure cereal rye will. This ^^^^^^.......I've got some cereal rye growing in a new "woods" plot and so far so good. It'll likely grow but not be as productive due to less sunlight....the less sunlight you have then the less photosynthesis that takes place.

What ask for when buying cereal rye? It seems all I can find is rye grass. I'm wanting something that's going to give me a good thatch layer next year. The wheat and oats leave nothing the next summer.

The wheat and oats leave nothing the next summer. It will most likely be Elbon or Wrens Abruzzi…..either one will be fine……should be somewhere in the neighborhood of $12-$14 a bag

I got quoted $19 a bag for elbon. Try calling Farmer's Feed in Montgomery.....that price is way high for this year. I think threw my ticket away already but I bought it from the Co-op in Notasulga and paid $13 something I'm pretty sure. I know it wasn't anywhere close to $19

Another question. You talk about going back in December and giving plots nitrogen,does that hurt the clover in the plot?
