[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1380687, member: 1715"] We bought some run down hay ground and turned it into pasture. Ph was low like everything else so we had it limed and seeded clovers. Ph did not come up as expected initially. After two years we re limed the lowest ph paddocks... Now, several years after we quit liming we are increasing stocking density and ph is overshooting. :shock: I think the biology was pretty dead when we bought this ground and now it it running wild. The last paddock I checked can in at 7.4 ph after overwintering and a cover crop. Don't plan to pour on acid corn fertilizer to lower ph, so are there any other management options other than planting alfalfa? [/QUOTE]
