Sooooo ... I want to try this on a few fields, particularly some where the soil is poor. What is step one this spring? Soil test? If so, do I till in the lime? Leave the lime on top? then plant a cover crop like BW? Then mow once or twice to let it reseed? Then what? Let it sit?
In the fall, spread rye, and clover, fertilize per the soil test, and then mow over the seeds? Or do I need to spray, seed, and then mow?
These plots are small - .5 acres.
Thanks. Like Blumsden said, spraying is a personal choice. I didn't spray any of mine and they all turned out very well. I wanted to leave the current vegetation (SH) growing while my seed was coming up. The weeds got bit back by the cold, the remaining SH that was still growing after I bush hogged eventually died out as well, and the plots came on strong.
