I have 30 acres disced up and pretty much ready to plant. Before I disced it up the only thing growing on this field was some smut grass and st. augustine carpet grass. It was pretty much a worthless piece of ground. Anyway, I got it ready to plant and then saw the price of Bermuda grass seed. Everywhere on the internet says plant 25-50 lbs. per acre on new pasture. I have made my mind up to go with 10 lbs. to the acre. I really think they say those high numbers because they are the ones selling the seed. Has anyone planted bermuda grass seed and at what rate. It is between bermuda grass and bahaia. Bahaia takes so long to sprout theat I'm afraid weeds and other junk will take over the field before it comes up. I know bermuda grass will sprout and grow very fast. I have a roller and all I have to do is mix it in with fertilizer in a hopper and go with it. Probably going to do it at the end of March to get the April rains. I am located in S.E. Texas. Any advice ???
