I had two visitors yesterday related to my fencing. One was the owner of the fencing company who sells hay and the UK Externsion agent who was here to inspect my fence project.
During both visits, the topic of plant growth came up. Seems that grasses have not performed and clovers have filled in. Both gentleman said pastures here are filled with white dutch clover or ladino clover and grasses are under performing. The fencing guy said second cutting hay in this area is going to be mostly red clover and a small understory of grasses.
The other conversation was weeds like cocklebur, horseweed, etc are earlier than normal. The late summer weeds that normally peak in August are already well on their way to peaking in July.
