About 50% of my field has been stunted from the rains we've had over the past month or so & there are a few spots where the oats didn't come up at the same time. There are lighter colored young ones mixed in with the dark green ones that already went to seed. What should I do when the field comes up uneven? The grass seed is about the same height as the stunted oats. Albeit I only have about 5 acres, there's alot of money invested in a few bags of pasture mix & I sure don't want to plow it under & try again. I'm assuming it's because of all the rain. I planted just oats, last year, & had no problem. I even put it on kind of thick to choke out the weeds. Those oats came up like the weeds! This year? Bupkis! I could have gotten away with rice or cranberries. So, now I'm stuck with this hodge-podge & don't quite know what to do. Whats worse is, I was planing on binding this year & I don't think I'll have a spot in the field where I can cut the oats long enough without cutting the grass mix, too. Any help would be appreciated. - Mike
P.S. Anyone want to buy some mosquitoes?
