I have a 1/2 acre well-growing clover/WR/WW plot above my house that is currently about 5-6' tall with WR/WW (mostly WR) and knee-high with a mix of MRC, alsike, aberlasting, Imperial whitetail, domino white and mammoth red clover. I would like this field to be a draw for the fall and plan to overseed, after mowing, with a brassica mix, more WR/WW and some more clover in the early fall (thinking mid-late July for the brassicas and clover and late August/early September for the grains. My question is, how long should I let this field grow so as to get the most "free" seed out of the clovers and grains. There are seed heads and white/red/purple flowers on the grain and clover currently, but they are not dried out. I would only like to mow once if possible and I want this field to be lush for PA's archery season which opens in early October.

Clover is about knee high or more
