I've got some plots that I'll be planting this summer. I've done the clover / rye mix recommended here before, and I've been really happy with it, BUT this plot is in an area that I don't have a lot of access to with equipment. I know that in the spring / summer, the rye goes nuts and I don't want to have to deal with getting a mower back in there to cut it (or a sprayer to kill it).
So I guess the question is this, if my plot is bare dirt this summer and I'm going to do a fall planting with the hopes of doing clover and something else, what else can I put with the clover to get a similar effect to the rye without the troubles the following spring? I would just do a fall planting of clover, but at the same time I would like to have SOME food for the deer this fall.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
Steve
