Re: Alfalfa - new seeding
Can I till my soil and then hand seed before a rain this fall with a clover rye mix?
I am pushing out a fence that will allow a Rye/clover plot in a strip, approx 30 ft wide. On both sides of this strip will be large clover fields.
Will it eventually all be clover if I don't replant the rye next year, as I think this is our goal? Just hoping to add some diversity and a late season draw. Somebody told me the rye would possible spread to the clover but I thought that was 100% false as it should die off without a replanting next year and frequent mowing. Hope I was right in saying that?
