[QUOTE="Texan, post: 55127, member: 416"] Tod, I just try to let my ryegrass go to seed every year. I seeded some a few years ago and I think it ended up costing 60 or 70 dollars an acre. That's with attributing the full fertilizer cost to the ryegrass establishment and none to residual. To [i]me[/i], that's an expensive feed. But, some people say I'm a tightwad, so I guess you have to put everything in perspective. ;-) However, if you have a place where you don't already have cool season grasses or weeds established, I think ryegrass is a good investment. I just try to manage it so that I don't ever have to seed it again. That includes letting ryegrass mature in the hay meadows before cutting that first cutting. Its amazing how much "free" seeding you can do by feeding first cutting hay in areas where you want to establish ryegrass. [/QUOTE]
