That's awesome!..... thought you might like to see that. Heck yeah….thanks for posting. I really enjoy seeing the success pictures. I’d like to experiment with more types of clover. There’s several that no one ever talks about that I hear people having success with…..like balansa for one.

I've had the best success with crimson and Durana, they are hard to get away from once you know they do well. I just had 10 new fields put in so I will be getting the crimson and Durana mixture going in the ones I don't have chufas in.

I did a filled of Berseem and Mihi this past fall. It did well in the fall because both are annuals and grow quickly. I actually had some berseem winter over, but the Mihi was decimated by the deer in March.

I've never heard of Mihi, I just read alittle on it and it says that it's supposed to be more palatable than Rape, rye, and alfalfa. think I may pick one field and mix it along with the white clover.

Never heard of Mihi either...interesting. Medium red was one of the other one's I was thinking of. It's supposed to have a long grazing life in the spring/summer.

Teaweed chronicles - 21 of 60ish seeds have germinated so far still having 1 or 2 a day popup. gonna wait a couple weeks and move the jiffy potted ones into red solo cups. Then into the edge of a wood line once they get 3 sets of leaves on them. With one getting caged. Jiffy potted ones have come up faster than the ones in 4" containers of potting soil.

Mihi is a type of Persian clover. Not trying to promote a seed distributor, but Petcher seeds carries it. I do recommend putting an exclosure around a section of it. I planted some 3 years ago and said I had a seed failure, until I pulled my pictures. They let it get about half an inch tall then killed the entire section of it. It was a small plot and maybe just was under sized for the pressure, but I would have never bought the seed again had I not seen the amount of deer (and hogs) in the pictures. All I planted was Abruzzi Rye and Mihi. Only Rye made it to December.

Anybody have any photos of their plots with Summer Plantings following the Throw and Mow Practices ?

Anybody have any photos of their plots with Summer Plantings following the Throw and Mow Practices ? I'll dig up some old photos. I’ve done some experiments in the past and gotten good germination on things like buckwheat, cowpeas, sunflowers, and milo…..others have had good success with millet as well. My issue though is that I have a high deer population and it all just gets wiped out as soon as it gets going. I’m switching gears and trying to find a more sustainable solution. Right now its looking like teaweed will be a main component combined with some clovers and a few other choice native plants. I’m really considering trying to establish some partridge pea next year. I still haven't tired Joint vetch or Alyce clover either. I hear folks have good success with those in heavy grazing situaitons.

This started off well but they eventually demolished everything but the milo. It ended up being milo and weeds in the end. Edit: I think some of that is Egyptian Wheat as well.

Just remember that soil and nutrient conditions are key to having success. Hopefully we'll get some more rain in the forecast soon turkey_neck...It's getting dry here again.

Many of the folks who have been experimenting with it for any length of time are actually from other states. https://www.qdma.com/forums/showthread.php?t=74268

The grass is starting to die here. It’s gonna look bad in another week. A lot of the stuff in my field is beginning to wilt….even crabgrass and ragweed. The teaweed is a soldier though. Its probably handling the drought as well as anything. Very pleased with it.
