[QUOTE="ny_grass, post: 838625, member: 8237"] So last year the buttercups ([url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranunculus]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranunculus[/url]) took over and now some of my pastures are a sea of bright yellow. What do you folks know about them? I'm trying to mow as much of my land this year as I can to knock it back (and the golden rod, multi-flora rose, thistle and some other less desirable plants). I'm assuming this will help. Unfortunately, because of the wet conditions I think I've missed the prime time and they've had their flowers for a couple of weeks (and therefore probably have fertilized seeds), but better late than never. I'm pretty surprised by how quickly they invaded; I don't recall seeing them much when I moved on the property 4 years ago. Something about how I'm rotating the cattle through the pastures must be giving them an advantage... JR [/QUOTE]
