Now that I'm upgrading to a tractor that can handle the chore of mowing a larger area, I'm getting ready to convert the remaining 6-7 acres of my lot to grass and have a few questions. I'm located in NW Missouri.
First, should I wait until fall to attempt this or get started this spring? Field is currently emerging in winter wheat.
Second, the land has been farmed in soybeans and winter wheat the last 3 years. Any concerns, problems, benefits due to previous farm use and fertilizer use?
Third, any tips in general on converting a large area to grass? Most will be in full sun, gentle north to north/west facing slope.
Thanks.
