I've had good luck with Cowboy Bermuda from Turner seed. Both times I've planted it I've been able to graze in the Fall. I've also planted WW B-Dahl four times and it's amazing stuff for grazing cattle
Great video, I see the Cowboy Bermuda and the WW, are these coastal types? I’m also wondering if I could use a Hay King or aerator and broadcast Bermuda over my mixed grass?
Coastal is a type of Bermuda that can only be planted by sprigging "roots" that are dug out of the ground. Cowboy is a mixture of several types of Bermuda that can be grown from seed. WW B Dahl is a bluestem bunch grass that is grown from really tiny seeds. It's amazing for cow grazing and cow hay as long as there isn't sometimes standing water.
I need to plant my pasture which was almost all sandburs. 1 hour SE of San Antonio. I thought bermuda seed was sterile? I'm looking into SPRIGGING with Coastal Bermuda.
Coastal, Jiggs, & Tifton must be sprigged but there are other varieties of Bermuda that can be seeded like common and giant. I planted a 3 type mix called Texas Tuff
@@LewisRenovation thanks Lewis. I planted Elbon rye in September. It's not a perrinial but I wanted to have something other than sandburs. I'm now wondering how to get pasture grazing grass started where I planted the rye. My thought is to seed into the rye then roll crimp it down onto the seeds.
Obviously you are planting a common type of Bermuda because ours is a Hybrid Cross so the seed are sterile so we have to plant spriggs.......(Tifton 44)
@@LewisRenovation thanks for the reply back. I will do some searching for that piece of equipment in our area. The seed is too expensive to not do it correctly, since we recently wasted $500.
