Livesintrees
5 year old buck +
So for those that have read other threads. I planted an old access trail section of the property. I used the mix pictured below. It germinated within 3 days and we have had excellent rainfall ever since. Sun is currently my limiting factor. When using other varities of turnips I typically would have more growth. However this is the first year planting anything on my new property. Soil tested and amended as recommended. It was seeded one month ago and the brassicas have only reached 6-8” in some spots. It almost seems like I have some yellowing taking place. Now I didn’t expect good results for year one and my goal was to simply get something growing period to start fixing the soil. So I’ve ruled out rainfall as the issue. Temps here since then have had a few hot days. And a handful of mornings right at 50 degrees. I’ve had excellent results with this type of mix on other properties. Not sure if I should just basically accept a less then ideal plot this year or if I should be considering top dressing the trail with some form of fertilizer. Any thoughts?
