    I have a very successfully 4 acre plot that’s been divided 1/2 with perennial clover and the other half brassicas via throw n mow/spray. Last year I decided to rotate as the brassicas have been in the same portion for 3 years and the clover side was getting overtaken with grass. I did...

    Stepping on brassica kill it?

    My brassica plot looks great this year but I planted it right up to the edge of the timber so every time I go to a stand or check trail cameras, I step on and break the stems/leaves. Does this kill the plant? My plot is ptt, kale, groundhog radish, and forage radish.

    Does my plot stand a chance?

    I screwed up my original planting by spraying 24d and had to replant August 20. We didn’t have rain for a few weeks and I just checked the plot and my brassicas (ptt, rape, forage brassica, radish) is only 5-7” tall. Any chance it will be a viable plot by the end of October?

    I planted red clover in the spring (brassica mix last fall) and just did a spray, throw, and mow of that same brassica mix into the clover. I sprayed this past Friday and mowed yesterday.

    Frost seed over moss?

    I cleared out a 200 yd by 5 yd path from a bedding area to a destination plot and and planned on frost seeding clover to give them something to graze on during their walk.
