Ok so I know this is a good plot forum but I’m hoping there are maybe some farmers on here. I have a good plot that was half brassica and half clover two years ago. 4 acres total. We just put a fence around it to have a horse. Last summer I brush hogged everything down low (the brassica side was basically dirt anyways) and planted a variety of grasses for the horse pasture. It is now growing well on the brassica side but is struggling on the clover side (the horse will eat ladino anyway). My question is should I be brush hogging this pasture while there is no horse in it (the horse won’t be here until next summer) or should I let all the grasses go to seed which might help thicken things up? Thanks!
