I respect the experience of others on this site, so I'm looking for your thoughts on putting together a fall mix. I use tillage every 3 years or so to rotate crops in the strips in my plot. I want to plant a clover/alfalfa/chicory strip using rye and maybe oats for a nurse crop. I wouldn't be against including a small amount of brassicas.
What would you recommend for a seed rate and mix? The strip is currently grassy, but it also has red and alsike clover, trefoil, plantain, queen anne's lace and asters. The ground can be damp, but not wet, in the spring. It's the driest ground in the plot. pH is 7. NPK are all decent.
I would like to leave this for another 3-4 years if possible.
