August may not be a traditional planting month, but it’s a crucial time for growers looking to establish alfalfa or prepare for fall crops. For most of our trade territory, alfalfa should be seeded by August 30, ideally 6–8 weeks before the first killing frost to ensure strong root and top growth before winter. After September 1, success rates drop significantly.
