Bare spots in alfalfa.

Cam50 · Aug 3, 2012

I have a one year old stand of decent alfalfa that has a few thin spots that i would like to fill in. What can I overseed,(and when)? South Michigan, sand/clay, recent lime. Hay is used for beef cattle.
Thanks for your help.

yes,you can overseed.in michigan you would want to do it early spring.as soon as you could get into field. if you dont mind a mixed stand you could even frost seed clover in.doesnt work so well with alfalfa most places though.

Drill in any of the more palatable grasses this fall along with red clover. Do it immediately.

Orchard grass works well with alfalfa. It grows and regrows at about the same rate. Also grows at same temps as alfalfa.
