This may have been covered in another thread but they've gotten so big that I might have missed it.
I'm planning on planting switchgrass next spring in a few areas of an overgrown field next to my house. Probably about 1A total. I have a bunch of young walnut and cherry trees in the field so I can't just plow it all under, I have to work around the trees.
I mowed the areas a few weeks ago and I plan on spraying them with Roundup soon. My question is this, should I wait until spring and burn the areas and then frost seed or do I rototill the areas this fall and seed in the spring? I've never burned and I'm questioning if I need to since I have a 5' rototiller for my tractor.
Also, recommendations on what type of switch to plant and where to get it. Thanks.
