Time of Cutting Alfalfa in Kansas

The best time to cut alfalfa in Kansas is when 1 to 10 in bloom to full bloom. Cutting at these stages yields the most days of growth and maintains a good stand. Cutting in bud injures the stand, causing weeds in the third cutting of the second year. Cutting at 1 to 10 in blossom has a few weeds, while cutting at full bloom is weed free.
