It was the stalks, above the upper joint, of spear-grass and redtop grass growing so profusely in Weathersfield.
Redtop, clover, and timothy grow rank, and are profitably cultivated.
Some other grasses may also be added under certain conditions, or substituted for timothy or redtop.
In New England, timothy, red clover, and redtop are generally used for the mowing crop.
Soils that produce sorrel and redtop when red clover and timothy are sown need drainage or liming or both.
