[QUOTE="Rancher, post: 1813787, member: 16512"] Up here the grass grows so fast in first half of summer I need to move them more often. My bluegrass is first to pasture in mid-May, as cows graze them "mow" like it's a lawn and is high quality. Then I move them into my normal pasture of Brome/Timothy/Garison foxtail and alsike. 10 days later they are back on the Bluegrass. As is normal that grass heads out when only a foot tall especially if it is hot and dry period. I force them to keep Bluegrass short. Then on another 5ac field that is mostly just mative Redtop mixed with brome and is already in the boot stage! They really do well in this rotation plan but does depend on rain only. If I can not keep up with the growth I mow and bale into 4x6 rounds [/QUOTE]
