Here is some really good info. If you ever plant vetch and Alyce Clover combined I promise you'll be happy you did.

MSU Deer Lab Summer Planting

What kind of seed rate are you running with them mixed?

According to QDM food plot manual 10# each per acre.

I did 20#’s an acre. You’re not trying to harvest this so running thick doesn’t hurt. Plus you always lose some to wildlife and being buried too deep or who knows what. I’ve had tremendous success with Vetch and Alyce.

I am going to drill 15 lb of each to the acre, anyone have some input on how to transition from the vetch/clover mix in the summer to grain/brassica/clover mix in the winter then back to vetch/clover the next summer? It looks like the vetch might be to big and bushy in early October to run a drill over it and plant with it standing, might have to mow it first. Will the vetch/clover naturally come back the next summer?

Where you buying the seed?

Yes, mowing will most likely be necessary. I don't believe the vetch will come back but some of the clover should naturally re-seed itself

We cut a 20 acre hay field that has a ton of vetch in it. I can’t remember how it comes back after the first cutting in the early summer. But I do know it is so thick it will make a mess in a hay mower trying to cut. We don’t drill this field with rye in October like the rest, and is always super thick with vetch the next spring without any seeding. I’m pretty sure our crab grass chokes the vetch out after the first time cutting… hope this helps..

I bought mine at Safford

STL32....... it doesnt come back again unfortunately
