[QUOTE="dun, post: 1017052, member: 34"] One thing I found strange is around here it seems to be overned by elevation. A neighbor has a low hay filed that has about 90% headed out. Our lowest pasytres (about the same elevation as his hay field) are the same way. But as you go up the hill it gets less and less. He has one hay field on a ridge and it hasn;t even started to boot yet. I've given some serious consideration to cutting ours now but 2 things hold me back. One is the rain which we don;t seem to be able to avoid for more then 2 days at a stretch and those 2 days it's too cool to cure. The other is the fields are so waterlogged that just walking across them you throw up a rooster tail. The few areas that have more then a couple of inches of soil covering the limestone will dry up some, but the water percolating from the thin stuff and following the surface of the rock to the end keeps it pretty soggy too.
