PLANTING AID:

One way is similar to switchgrass. mow the area in late summer and get it as clean of thatch as possible. Spray 2-3 times late summer , early fall. broadcast (frost seed the following late winter / early spring)

Another option is spray the area at spring green up 2-3 times with round up. Do not use 2-4D 60 days prior to seeding. Broadcast then roll/pack or drill the seed right after 2nd or 3rd spraying. Seeding up to mid June if spring planting.

If tillage is needed in the spring:

Spray at spring green up. Till or disc 8-10 days later. Smooth the area and pack. Let the weeds come back and spray with round up 1-2 times.

After the last spraying the seed can be broadcast then packed right after, or drilled.

One 21 pound bag plants 3 acre.
