No, I’m good with it….like I said, I was just speculating on the reason…..It doesn’t bother me to be wrong when we’re just pondering over ideas and possibilities. If its not soil temps then its something else that’s having the effect because I grew off a chit load of crimson clover seed but I don’t think I have any clover or volunteer cereal grains growing right now…Come fall though I’ll have another thick crop of crimson clover sprout up just like its done for the last several years.. There’s something that’s causing or allowing the seed to sit there all summer until the conditions are right or the conditions change. In the past the only thing I could have done to effect it was mowing….This year I haven’t even done that. The change in conditions with my patch of clover when it suddenly sprouts in the fall is something environmental. I'm not disturbing the seed bank or doing anything to trigger the change. Temp just seems like the most likely trigger.
