So yes on 2-4d. So you can spray then broadcast seed about 7 days later. Or you can up your seed amount. Also depends on what you are seeding.I've always heard that 2-4d has a carryover effect on newly seeded crops....and you need to wait 10 days after spraying to plant new crops. No?

Honestly foggy I rarely use 2-4d. If you use 2quarts/acre of gly with AMS and NIS it will be gone. Balansa is an annual and will be deader than a doorknob with what I just said. Only time I use 2-4d is for a preplant burndown on native stuff for starting a new plot, or in some native grass establishment.I've always heard that 2-4d has a carryover effect on newly seeded crops....and you need to wait 10 days after spraying to plant new crops.

That chit has to out-compete every other thing? NO?
Not mine. I always planted it in early August. I'll get clumps and pockets of it to come back in the spring, and I have no idea if it's biennial, or if there is hard seed laying until spring. That clover, and crimson and berseem really irritate the hell out of me. I've never been able to grow crimson and berseem, no matter how much of it I put out there. Balansa has been good, but still sparse. I just don't know when to put it in to get it to go.
It’s a lot easier if you spray.

Wow. Hard to imagine that much biomass getting past the deer in my plots and that seems really cool but I can see how it would create a problem for planting the next crop.I planted Fixation Balansa one fall in zone 3. The next summer I had a crop thick and dense just like they show on their website. I don’t know if anything ate it all spring/ summer.
I’m not exaggerating to say there was 4” of thick matted clover with stems 5’ long. Without tillage there was no way for me to get the next crops seed to the ground. It was that thick.
It looked like this picture I copied off the internet somewhere.

it will kill both deader than dead.
There is a plant back interval so spray 7-10 days before putting seed out.
I've got my property covered in HV. Never heard the poison part though. I do worry about it overpowering a plot though. I had a really nice and tall stand last summer, and eventually the vetch just consumed it all and took it to the ground.
When are you throwing the crimson out there?
huh, never had any issues with crimson so far. Planted may/august. A bunch even survived winter.
I may have had bad seed. It was only a year old, so I figured I'd at least get some. But I got zeros on both crimson and berseem.
Maybe. I only used fresh seed. Maybe crimson doesn't last as long as typical red/white because its larger seed?
