We overseeded our pastures about 5 weeks ago- they had gotten all brown and dried up in August (!). Since then the weather has been really good for grass growing lots of rain and moderate temps.
My question is, when can I put the cows on it? I don't want to harm the new grass, but it's about 4 inches tall and reallybright green.
Also, does this grass have much nutritional value? I know in the cold parts of the year grass really doesn't have much nutrition, but what about brand new fresh green stuff?
I won't bother putting the cows on it if it's bad for the grass or only marginally nutritious for the cows.
Thanks!
Susie
