[QUOTE="dun, post: 454540, member: 34"] If the field is rough, rocky or in some way there is something that keeps you from being able to drive at a decent speed acrossed it, now would be the time to address those problems. After the grass gets growing well you never want to do anything that will tear it up again. Spend the fall getting it in good shape to grow grass, then do a soil test, add lime and maybe a fast growing winter annual. In the spring seed it with a good forage mix and control the weeds. It's pricey, but if there isn;t much grass now, a friendly endophyte fescue would be hard to beat. After the first year when the annual weeds are under control frost seed clover. The reason for waiting on the clover is you may want to spray with a broadleaf herbicide and there's no reason to plant clover and then kill it with heribicide so that you have to replant it.
