I know there are a thousand variables but..............
Have a small pasture that has some weak grass in half of it. Well fertilized because I spread horse manure on it regularly (feed store and a local said I should use some nitrogen on it though).
Anyway, getting ready to take the mare and foal off it and was thinking to run my chain harrow over it and overseed with a good pasture mix.
Question/s
when (if at all) should I do the nitrogen in relation to the seed?
and, when could I let a horse or two back on?
Asked a couple local farmers about a soil test and they told me it wasn't worth it because everything around the area is fine. Said mine should be better and blamed it a little on nitrogen and a lot on type of grass.
Any ideas is appreciated.
