I have a couple little irrigated pastures - 1/4 acre ish - that I wanted to plant some pasture for my dairy goats. I'm in Zone 6. It was just dirt and weeds before. In Oct 2023 I fall planted one of them with this pasture mix. I plowed and drag-harrowed the ground, waited a few days to firm it up, and then broadcast seeded and dragged it again to bury the seeds. I kept it wet for a couples weeks and kept irrigating until it went dormant. The pasture turned out great. It looks like all the different varieties of seed sprouted fine. By the time it went dormant the grass was a foot high in some areas.
I'm very pleased with the whole thing, and will be spring planting the other pasture with the same seed next month. Hopefully I'll be getting fresh milk from goats eating my own pasture soon.
I bought 35LBS of this seed mix and planted a small area, after watering for about a week and a half I see growth, it's beginning of July which is not an ideal time for planting pasture but I have no choice, I really want to get it going so I have a pasture by next summer, I will lay some straw or some loose soil on the next area I will be seeding so the seeds stay put and get a cover with moisture on them plus the birds won't get them.
still in the planting and growing process. looking forward to being able to actually let our sheep and goats roam in a few more months
