[QUOTE="agmantoo, post: 755103, member: 8973"] I also am working on a few acres that I bought that are very rough from a neighbor . One side of it is steep. Steep to the point I have problems keeping the track loader on the hillside. There is almost no topsoil on this bank and I already have had some erosion. I have now cut a terrace around the hill to redirect the water but I need to get ground cover ASAP. Here where I live in zone 7 it is getting hot quickly and ryegrass will not last more than another month IMO. I am sowing cereal rye, cheap and will grow nearly anywhere, just to get a quick cover and I am interseeding with pearl millet. If this takes hold I will sow grass and clover come Fall when the roots are more likely to establish. In your case sow whatever is adaptable to your area for this time of year.
