Selecting and Understanding Seed Types

the factory to have it fixed let's talk a little bit about the grass seed that I'm using guys I'm using a k32 this is Kentucky 32 grass okay it's an IND of fight free grass okay and into fight is the type of fungus that grows in grass that can make cows get colicky or sick so that's what we're planning here because we're planning on this being pasture land or cutting it for hay next thing we can talk about is clover okay so here is our Ladino clover this is also what we're planting will put the clover in the clover hopper and we'll seed it fairly lightly throughout the field the clover will help to fix nitrogen to the soil and provide a better quality soil over the years now some folks that mohei don't like clover in their hay because it takes a long time for clover to dry it basically holds a lot of moisture we want it because we're establishing pasture if at some point we want to go over this with a broadleaf weed killer which may happen because after you clear all this land let me show you after you clear all this land oh this is what I'm seating after you clear this amount of land you're gonna have a lot of weeds now for the first two years or so we'll just mow him down mown down mow him down to provide biomass here in the soil and in subsequent years our goal will be to eliminate weeds to eliminate anything that's not good pure fescue and clover okay most of the time when you just mow that takes care of it that gets rid of the weeds you mow before the weed seed out and most of your weeds are not a perennial meaning they don't come back year after year like the grass this k32 fescue is very invasive okay meaning that it will push out bad weeds it will push out other undesirables which is good it's very invasive it grows very vigorously and that's what we'll be bailing for hay in the next vlog or so so the goal here is to have a good high
