I’ve got a small 0.4 acre plot not too far from the house that I want to try a simple brassica plot. I’ve always done the LC Rye mix, and have limited equipment (sprayer and drag harrow, could borrow mower if needed). Want to clear this plan with the group:
Right now it’s mostly goldenrod and some native grass. It’s not a sod forming grass, good OM on the top, goldenrod is about knee high right now. Looks like a I can get the seed down to the dirt and cover with good thatch.
I’ve got some time off work at the End of June, I was going to spray good with gly. Give it about 2 weeks. Come back, spread seed, lime and fertilizer. Drag everything down over the seed. Spray again if necessary. Planning on spreading (pounds per acre) 2# winifred, 2# PTT 5# daikon radish.
I considered not spraying until planting day, but I’m a little worried about the goldenrod getting tall and making things harder. I’m also not sure when it sets seed?
I’m not going to hunt over this so I’m going dor
Tuber production and overall tonnage for overwinter. I’m in southwestern wisconsin.
