Hi all.. closing on my new farm this coming week and need some advice on puring up my bermuda. The front pasture was for growing hay, and the back 2 pastures were horse paddocks. I went out and grabbed some soil to send off for testing this afternoon, so I don't have those numbers yet, but I noticed that since the horses have been off of the back pastures that the bermuda has come back good and strong. The horses unfortunately gave the weeds a good boost and the soil is compacted badly. I'll probably hit those with a shank renovator to loosen the compaction, but what is a good method to use to clean up the bermuda in all fields? Should I wait til about late January to mid February (central Georgia) and just burn down the fields with RoundUp? The front field was recently hayed, but appears to be a mix of bermuda and fescue. I want to pure that up as well. The bermuda in the back pastures is grown up beyond the point it should have been harvested in my opinion. Should I bush hog it down for the winter and spraying? Sorry for the novel, but thanks for any input. The pics are the most prevalent weeds I saw. I also have the typical yellow flower field weed (but white).
