If I could offer some constructive criticism without sounding too harsh…..you needed to make another pass over that field with the mower. The reason why is so that your hay biomass will be distributed more evenly and all those clumps of grasses still standing would be evened out. That helps get a more even germination across the field. Imagine how an area would look if you used a hay blower to cover it with hay. You’d have a nice even layer. That's what you're wanting it to look like when you're done.
Good luck though still….I hope it does well for you.
