cane grass conversion to orchard
#7
I can tell you from experience that simply mowing cane grass will not kill it. I have patches on my property that I have been mowing for over 7 years and they are still there. Since they are not in an important area I just keep them mowed, but they do grow 4x faster than the regular grass you you have to keep an eye on it and make sure that it does;'t get out of control. They only way to actually get rid of cane grass is to dig or scrape up ALL the roots (and I mean ALL) or to use poison.

That being said, I also know a couple of folks out in the bare rock fields of Kalapana that have been harvesting cane grass and composting it to make soil. They say it's excellent.
