Baling in KY

Realistically, What is the normal "last date" to be able to bale grass hay in good, very dry squares here in central KY? Thanks

I usually wait until after the first frost and get my last cutting in. The hay usually stops growing after a the first couple frosts.

I do this to get the most I can get out of my field at the end of the year. Being that second and last cuttings are the best for horses, I try to make the most of it.

Like the others said, the only real issue is the shorter cooler days and drying the hay. Sometimes the only way is tedding or rolling with a rake and giving it an extra day or so.

I'm in Upstate NY and the biggest issue I have right now is all this rain. I like to see a 3 to 4 good days in the forcast before I start cutting. Lately it's been rain every other day.
