Deer don’t seem to like brassicas for me. I had three plots in different places and the deer never really ate it much. I think I’ll just plant cereal rye this fall. I did one plot with rye and clover last fall but planted the rye too heavy and it smothered the clover but the deer really tore it up.They buried there heads in the snow digging for it. I never hear to much about why clover plots come to an end. If you keep up with the lime and fertilizer what changes. I did my first clover plots six years ago and the were really nice for about four years.Some five.Then weeds became a problem I couldn’t keep up with. Is it the nitrogen build up that causes the problem? I read where someone said they broadcast rye into their clover plot every fall to help use the nitrogen. Is it possible to keep a clover plot going for much over 5 years.
