Early this spring I fertilized my 10 acre Orchardgrass field and we have just taken 1st cutting. I have read before that grass hay responds well to Nitrogen-only fertilizer after 1st cutting and can really improve yields for 2nd cutting. I have never used a single nutrient fertilizer before. I would be using my 3pt broadcast spreader. I have no idea what would be a good baseline for lbs/ac and also what type of Nitrogen as I believe there are different types (46-0-0, etc). Also, I assume it will broadcast out of the spreader, don't really know what it looks like. Does anybody know a good starting point that would allow my Orchardgrass to get a really nice bump for 2nd cutting? Thanks
