[QUOTE="Hickory40CC, post: 1334372, member: 23656"] I am glad to hear most of y'all ain't seeing much CG yet. I know that sounds mean...but that's not what I meant. I also broadcasted a mixture of 3 lbs. RR and 1 lb Q&B per acre with sand as a carrier back in December...and some in February. I had the cows tread it in. Here it is May 23rd, and I'm JUST now seeing crabgrass emerge IN PLACES. I've been pretty concerned, but I remember last summer (the first year I had it) that it didn't really come on good until mid-June. I love the stuff! The best beef I've ever had/tasted in my life came from cattle that grazed it all summer. I was always a guy that believed you just HAD to grain-feed cattle on dry-lot to make em taste good...I now know that ain't so. I got nervous last year and stay in touch with Mr. Dalrymple out in Thomas, OK. He told me that he once turn cows onto 10" of CG on May 26th...can't remember if it was RR or QB, but that was the best he'd ever done. When it's been cool like this year...it'll be later than usual...I sure am getting impatient! [/QUOTE]
