[QUOTE="4hfarms, post: 1821751, member: 39740"] I did about 5ac of young forest, feb/March of 2020. I let them graze from day one. I drilled holes in the stumps and kept them full of salt for about 6months. Lime on it that fall and used it for winter hay feeding the last couple of years. It is now useable pasture with a a few stumps that are slowly disintegrating. I ground them short enough to the ground with my chainsaw after the stump died so that I could bush hog over them after the cows were done each time. It's now in the running for useable pasture. I have seen much worse. I doubt I could cut hay from it, but they enjoy it regularly every 25-40 days. Maybe some day I'll pay someone too much money to do it right.... maybe not! [/QUOTE]
