[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1723353, member: 17304"] I think its all good...whatever you do, if you continuous graze it or mow it short in the heat of the summer what ever benefit you get won't last long. 90 degree days will give you 120 and up degrees on the soil if exposed. I learned that a few years ago taking a hand held thermometer gun....thick grass 6 to 8 inches tall...the soil beneath it will be 80 degrees(good).....short grass with exposed soil will be over 120 degrees plus. Soil life can't tolerate that temperature very long. [/QUOTE]
