Subject: Summer-Fall Burning ???




Hello,

I wrote to the list a while back asking about managing residential
plantings (1/4 acre) for flowers over grasses. Previously I have burned
in the spring.

My understanding from the answers was; I should burn in the late summer
or fall to favor the flowers and forbs over grass.
Is this correct? (I had a variety of answers).

Part 2; If this is correct, what are the tips for getting this to burn? I
have tried 2 times in the last week of low humidity and fairly dry
conditions and cant get more than a small spot of maybe 25' to burn. Is
this maybe just a matter of waiting another month?

Thanks,

Dan Dietz
