[QUOTE="VZCR, post: 437960, member: 6499"] Quote: If the grass has turned to a greenish color like above, you are looking at something worthy of consideration. If not, thump your cigarette butt over in the hay storage area and drive off cause the hay ain't worth the money. I'm wondering if when this test is complete, and you have some green and some brown, is it still best to burn it instead of paying a low price, (like corn stalks or some other baled up dead stems)? How is corn stalks better than bermuda grass hay? I know I'm comparing oranges to apples, but I would think bermuda grass hay would be as good as any other last resort hay to feed with suppliments. To say its only good for a fire is putting it as worthless. Cornstalks and other dead stems and stalks are little better than cardboard and they bring a good price, why not baled up bermuda grass? Lets say "set fire to anything that don't turn green with your test." I guess when you say "ain't worth the money" I think "well its a darn sight better than cornstalks!" :) [/QUOTE]
