Works great on trails.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition the soil with a plow, disk, or similar equipment to prepare a good seed bed as early as possible so weeds have a chance to begin growing. Allow the field to green up then spray with Round Up two weeks before planting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen ready to plant, loosen up the seed bed surface with a drag or chain link fence to further prep the soil. Do not till too deep, tilling deep will only bring more weed seeds to the surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil should be fertile with a pH of 6.5 to 7.5. If you are not sure of your soils fertility or pH, have your soil tested. Your local farm co-op or fertilizer dealer can usually help with this. \u003cem\u003e*A good fertilizer recommendation is 200-300lbs of 8-24-24 *Apply either pelletized lime or ag lime if needed.\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroadcast or drill at 8-10lbs\/acre 8.
