[QUOTE="El_Putzo, post: 118010, member: 1017"] The stuff we call cheat looks very similar what's on this website. In our area, the cows love it until it begins to make a seed then they won't touch it. It grows early in the spring and is usually ripe about June 1 after which it dries up and goes dormant. Not sure if it shoots new leaves in the fall, since the foliage looks so similar to fescue. Guess I've never really looked at it in the fall. We've never had any tested, but the year we cut the timothy field when it was about 60% cheat, the cows loved it and did fine on it. I would guess it has about the same nutritional value as early cut fescue. JMO [/QUOTE]
