[QUOTE="Chris H, post: 1029783, member: 1974"] I'd add 1 comment to this. The timing of when you stop grazing & fertilize to begin stockpiling will depend on your location. Here in Southwestern Ohio we stop grazing about Aug 1. Application of nitrogen is optimum in early August for us. We often get a good soaker the first week in Aug, and if we need N on the field we time it with that rain. Rhune, cutting a new field of grass once it's over 4-6 inches will stimulate it to tiller and thicken. At this point, you might be best brush hogging it to knock down the seed heads and have a nice stemless pasture for the cows this fall. [/QUOTE]
