3rd year Shawnee Switchgrass.
It is about ready to jump. No need to mow this year.

What did you do for prep here, spray last year or just this spring?Switchgrass drilled May 30.
This works WAY better than frost seeding. I will probably never frost seed again. View attachment 125419
Burn down this spring. Planted. Immediate spray with pursuit.What did you do for prep here, spray last year or just this spring?
I'm intrigued, I've never even tried anything other than frost seeding. That was dbltrees way so I've always followed suit.Switchgrass drilled May 30.

Any RC Big Rock updates? Assume this summer the first year planting it?
I don't have a picture but mine is doing great say 2 to 2.5 feet tall as of July 1st..
Yes Sir .. Drilled in April it took off... I have some pics a few pages back ... It's real deal I bought mine from Iowa bow hunter . First time I tried it . Drilled in to rye mix and sprayed Gly / Atrazine .. Ill update pics in 2 weeks ..Wow! First year?
So, this is a stand that is going into its 3rd growing season. Last year, lots of foxtail. Sprayed quorilac (sp?). Looks sparse. And concerned about how much duff there is. Thinking a burn would help? What would you do?
TIA!

ThanksI mowed a piece 3 weeks ago high, prior to some rains and it really helped it. I'd say 16 inches now but a slightly different time frame. After seeing the results I mowed the rest...2nd year stuff.
We have 4 switchgrass field that are 10 to 15 years old and getting a bit weedy. I'd like to get rid of the weeds using oust, a.k.a. SFM 75. Am I correct that if I spray oust in November that the weeds will not grow the following spring/summer but the switchgrass will not be harmed by the oust? Or would an early spring application of oust be better, and would the switchgrass still not be affected and grow just as good with applying oust in early spring? thanks!
