Never seen grass so thick and so green at the same time. Must be because it's grown so quickly.. I've only mowed one field for hay so far. Rest wasn't as thick a few days ago, but has changed quickly. Definitely be leaving the bales out a while...See what happens week after next, after next week's unsettled spell..
