[QUOTE="Tymurrey, post: 490745, member: 859"] NWSG is expensive and tough to get established without the brome over taking it. I tried to get switchgrass one year without the best prep work and it didn't take at all. I tried frost seeding then spraying the cool season grasses early with glyphosate and some some broadleaf pre-emergent. The switchgrass didn't take but it knocked back the brome and allowed some other natives to grow better and the deer seemed to prefer spending more time in that area for a few years until the brome overtook it again. I have an area around the tree rows that i planted this year that i would like to plant with NWSG and pollinators. Debating on dormant planting or if i should hit it this fall with glyphosate, then again in the spring and then plant. I truly feel brome grass is a giant problem with lots of our prairie around here for wildlife. It doesn't stand up well to snow and nothing but livestock eat it much. [/QUOTE]
