Recommended planting window is August through late September. The species included in this mix are winter-annuals that will reliably winter-kill under typical conditions. This blend is designed to enhance soil structure by promoting biological activity and reducing surface density, while effectively scavenging residual nutrients from previous crops as well as fall-applied manure.
Rapid establishment allows for early ground cover, which supports improved soil water infiltration and gas exchange. The diverse root architectures within the mix contribute to soil profile conditioning, aiding in the alleviation of surface and shallow subsurface compaction while improving overall soil tilth.
Seeding Rate: 50 lbs./ac as a cover crop, 100 lbs./ac if planted as a forage crop.
