Ok so I was asked to come in and Custom Bale/manage a farm. They had previous lease farmer seed timothy this spring in a corn field from last year. In my little bit of experience, timothy should be planted with a cover crop in the fall. I prefer/plant straight Orchard Grass stand. It appears the timothy is taking ok I guess. Some places it is 4 to 5" high but the weeds are everywhere and towering over. Plus corn stalks/stubble was left. My coarse of action/thinking it to brush hog field now cause some weeds are 2 to 3ft high. Soil sample and fertilize to recommendations and then spray for weed control hoping timothy is established enough to tolerate some herbicide.
