1. Obtain a Soil Sample. Good seed yields come from fields with a soil pH of 6.0 to 6.5 and testing ^high" in phosphate and potash. For best results phosphate and potash should be applied in the fall; this is a vital part of a fertilization program. 2. Topdress Fields with Nitrogen. Use 50-60 pounds actual nitrogen per acre as soon as possible this spring. Some of this may have been applied last fall. 3. Spray Fields for Weeds. Use 1 1/2 to 2 pounds of 2, 4-D ester per acre for onion and broadleaf weed control. This spray should be applied as soon as possible on a day when the temperature will be 60 degrees or higher for 3 hours. Do not delay spraying until orchard grass begins good growth—this• may cause some reduction in seed yield. Remember to read, the label and follow all directions for safe and effective use of 2, 4-D Virginia orchard grass is facing increased competition^ from the Pacific Northwest, i By increasing seed yields and producing higher quality seed, we can meet this competition.
