Our first cut was just a little off pace for yield from the last two years and the second cut is looking downright poor. The grass coming back looks good but it is seems to be growing back slow. It is grass hay, fescue, orchard grass, timothy, and clover. The fescue is not coming back at all. I soil sampled and everything was in range with the exception of lime that is actually high at 8.0-8.5. I have not done a forage sample but seen nothing to expect big changes from years past.
Temperatures in Tennessee will be in the 90's for the high now through the end of August. I would love to put down some coated urea or similar product but I think it will also flash off unless I spread it in the rain, which I am seriously considering.
Are there other options that work well this time of year in my area to give grass hay a kick?
