[QUOTE="rustyb, post: 601684, member: 8624"] ye well anyways i have half a paddock of forage sorghum planted, along with some mixed in legumes ect. the crop is nearing one month in age. it is about nearing a foot, 12 inches, in height, we have had a recent downpour of rain, and hot days are predicted this week so the crop is very likely to rapidly take off. There is however a heap of weeds through the crop, but the crop is still doing very well. I have noticed that the cattle will only graze and eat the non toxic weeds at a young age before they grow thick stems. the weeds are around the same height and are young as the crop, perhaps a bit smaller. The main question is , how do i know that the sorghum is at the right age to be grazed early before the weeds get worse, but established enough so the cattle dont rip it out and permantly damage the crop. is there some test i could do, besides letting them in and finding out... thanks, id like to get a second crop out of the sorghum, if thats important.
