We plant with oats as a nurse crop as well. We swath it and combine it for grain, and then chop or bale the straw off for bedding.
We have managed to get a 4th crop the last few years in late September, right after a frost ussually. At the same time, we cut our new seeding at the same time. It's always a bit weedy the first year, but after that it clears up and looks great.
Ussually have a good bit of Fox tail, not to mention some velvet leaf, and rag weed. We also get some thistle, which is hard to get rid of if it's on the edge of the field, but if it's closer to the middle it dies out as it's cut several times throughout the summer.
This year we have about 10 acres of new seeding and about 35 of old, that varies from 1-5 years old.
We'll cut it and chop it along with our corn, which is way behind this year. Last year we had everything except our late planted corn off by this time. This year, it isn't even dented yet. Good news is this year the early and late planted corn should be ready around the same time. Probably gonna have to wait for a hard frost though...
