Ok so here's the situation. I have thirteen acres that I want to renovate next year. I am thinking about planting Texas Tuff bermuda grass because I have seen what it can do and I like it, but I'm not opposed to something else. I had the soil soil tested and it is low in nitrogen. I have a sandly loam type soil and live in Central Texas. My question is, Should I plant some type of legume this fall to help with the nitrogen levels or use a commercial fertilizer this fall or use fertilizer in the spring? (Oops I think thats 3 questions) I don't want to waste money on a legume just to plow it when I plant. Or would it go to seed by then and be ok? All suggestions are welcome and I thank you for them now. However I don't want to start a debate on grass fed vs. grain fed or organic vs. not organic. I just want some feedback on what will work the best. thanks to all. :compute:
BTW I have horses that will occasionally graze this land so if legumes are not good for them then I will aviod that option.
