I reseeded a killed 45 acre field last fall, used one bag of this particular mix for every two bags of straight orchard grass as recommended by the co-op. The mix has roughly 33% OG, 25% festolium, 10% Alfalfa, 10% perennial ryegrass, 10% timothy and 3% ladino clover. I rounded so the %'s might not add up. So when considering the 2/3 OG ratio, the total % for the field is roughly 75% OG and the others are divided by 3. The field is pretty thick with one type of grass that I'm not familiar with, I've included the pics below. I can see some OG, (not much % wise), along with some alfalfa and a touch of clover. Is the forage in the pic festolium or ryegrass, and if so, is it normal to be such a large percentage of the population considering the relatively low % seeding rates? Any experience or comments on the longevity, management variations from normal OG/KY31?
Any advice is appreciated.
