seed combo,s

[livinoutdoors]

Is germination rate high that way?
Do u usually spray beforehand or fertilize?
I guess u would just want to overseed it this way?

Research the throw and mow method on here. It really works and there is a bunch of good tips on how to do it.

After you plow deep once you won,t have to plow again for many years as long as you don,t drive on it and compact the soil.
You don,t have to plow,BUT your germination rates will be lower by 20-50 percent .........depending on the amount of time to germination and birds feeding on it.Especially turkeys.

I looked back on my records and the best plots with the throw and go method I used 50 lbs wheat and 15 lbs of crimson.

Oats is sensitive. Rye i think will make it in siberia.

There is a reason it's called winter wheat.

Drilled a plot yesterday with some rye grain, triticale and cc.
Had about 15 lbs left over, so I broadcasted it in a small orchard of chestnuts I planted last spring, then ran the bushhog over it twice.
Excited to see how it does compared to the plot we drilled, rains in the forecast for the next 3 days.
