    cut second cut during the heat wave on the 11th of july. didn't spread any slurry for two weeks until the rain came but in one field some of the grass is after getting burned. the grass is coming in patches in one section and some is still yellow from the slurry. I have this field closed for another cut of bales and its after getting two bags of can. what can I do about the burned bits will they come after a while? I only reseeded this field about two years ago. granted I spread the slurry heavy at about 3-4k per acre

    big patches or just round circular patches, is it uniform with where the tanker passed over?

    just small circular patches maybe one or two feet diameters.
