[QUOTE="kenojoe, post: 66682, member: 865"] My 10 acre field was in tobacco 5 years ago and reseeded with orchard&fescue grass. It never did very good. Last spring I winter seeded with clover. Field is better but so so. I am waiting to get my soil test back any day. I have no access to any equipment other than a seeder for my 3 pt. hitch. The ext. agent says I should put down orchard. & clover. I will lime as soon as I get my report. Problem is I need to sow seed right away to catch the freeze/ thaw cycle before it warms up. When do I fertilize? How would you help this field without equipment? I need it for hay and pasture so I can't really get it plowed and start over. I didn't realize how thin it was getting until it got grazed down or I would have started last fall. What can I do to get something going, or am I just pissing in the wind? Thanks for any advice.
