[QUOTE="Logan52, post: 1805520, member: 32879"] With the almost total die off of White Ash, which was the dominant tree in my woods, hollows and fence rows, multi flora rose and bush honeysuckle have filled the empty spaces between the trees and along the edges. The rose bushes are even becoming a problem in mowed pastures. Like Clinch Valley, I started to buy fertilizer for the hay fields but hesitated due to price and lack of rainfall. Glad I did because the fertilized fields of my neighbors did not seem to benefit that much. Checking the hay fields on Sunday I was actually surprised at the height of the grass but it was not thick at all. Like Clinch Valley again, the amount of common vetch growing in the hay field was many times more than usual, the most I have ever seen. A think the cool and mostly dry spring has been very detrimental to pastures this year and grasses have headed out very low. The near constant wind events of Feb. March and April were hard on some plants and held back pastures (by drying the ground out if nothing else). [/QUOTE]
