[QUOTE="Brandonm22, post: 585351, member: 7645"] Louisiana is hotter, wetter, and warmer than I am; but HERE I haven't taken a jacket out of the closet yet and am still in short sleeve Ts with the fans on. I haven't had a snow that stuck on the roads here since the April 1993 blizzard. First frost COULD come as early as Oct the 20th or as late as Dec 5. Today's forecast is 79F high 67F low (26-19C). The lows will get into the 50s thursday but we go back in to the 80s this weekend. We plant ryegrass in heavily grazed down summer sods in September - October and it gets real lush growth until the first hard freeze and it will green up in warm weeks throughout the "winter". Often it is planted in blends with rye, oats, wheat, arrowleaf clover, red clover, crimson clover, and/or white clover (rye, ryegrass, oats, and 'ladino' white clover is the classic mix to get the most cool season grazing. Most of the farmers down here plant corn/soybeans in the summer and drill in wheat or oats following the fall harvest and then get a small grains harvest in March or April. Rye is an annual here too, though some people do plant perennial peanuts. [/QUOTE]
