Have a .25 acre plot that got expanded to probably 1.5 acres this winter when loggers came in to take care of tornado damage. Had them bring the dozer in and clear away a bunch of poplars leaving what i am assuming is mostly cleared away dirt. No soil amendments have been made yet and its probably pretty rough (rusk county wi crap soil). Typically this property is pretty wet in the spring/early summer so much so that spring planting is not an option. Therefore I want to frost seed some clover (and possibly something else?) on this just to get something in the ground other than weeds and new poplar growth. Depending how it goes, might be tilling under and planting other stuff late summer/early fall.
My question is: What strains of clover to frost seed? Looking for something hearty that will grow in such crappy conditions. I have jumbo ladino, alice white, kopu II, and medium red in other blends on this property and other properties and its done well, just dont know if those are good options for this situation. Ive heard some good things on alsike? Also, are there any other seeds that work well to frost seed like this? Wheat or rye need to get deeper, right?
thanks in advance!
