Soil is also high in p and k. I've done some reading and consensus is 5 lbs Durana, 5 lbs red clover and 50 lbs wheat/acre to establish. I'd like some advice or comments if you have any experience with it. This is some really good dark soil that has and holds good moisture

Durana is one of the most drought resistant clovers there are. High stolon count per square foot, so it can choke out some weeds and grasses. Great stuff. I prefer cereal rye instead of wheat, for establishing clover due to it's alleopathic effect on weeds. Fancy word for keeping weeds at bay.
