Default RE: Need Some Help

First you need to kill the grass or vegetation that is growing on the plot now. If you can use the atv and a disc to turn everything under. Give it a few weeks and turn it under again. If you can spay it with round-up first and wait a week or two it will save you a lot of time. Clover needs a pH of about 6.5 and alfalfa should be 7.0 to do well. Be sure to use the correct inoculant for each and wait until fall to plant them. If you go with clover or alfalfa use a 0-20-20 fertilizer. Correct soil pH and the inoculant are the two most important steps for the two to do well. Oh, a little rain every now and then doesn' t hurt either.
