[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1687437, member: 17304"] You can mow up as late in the year as its still growing....as long as it can still grow back. Around here you could mow up in Oct. maybe Nov. depending on how the season is. I think you should mow higher and higher the further you get into fall......just knock off the tops maybe an inch or two to stimulate it to grow more. Something else you can do too is flash graze....let the cattle in for an hour or two, just eating the tops off...nothing more. one thing that mowing does is it leaves all the residue/nutrients right there.....cattle will walk it off or move it around often times....they will graze an hour or two then go to the pond or shade tree and stand and manure and urinate....moving the nutrients off the field to some degree.
