It looks to have a fairly small seed though so it should do fine.



OK one more question.

Would a mix of sunflowers, buckwheat and sunn hemp work as T&M in a pasture? I have good organic material down about 10" but it has not been disked for many years. I would like to let the pasture green up and then spray roundup. Wait 2 weeks then broadcast the seeds and mow it down, hopefully right before a rain. Would like to do about 25 acres but dont want to waste my money. Your way would go a whole lot faster than spraying,waiting 2 weeks, mowing, then disking, broadcasting and cultipacking...


I love my country, but don't trust my government.
