I’m thinking that the lighter mix should work out just right in the spring as well for allowing the clover room to thrive without having to worry with mowing the rye. The brassicas should create that space for us I believe so that the rye isn't so thick that it smothers out the clover when it bolts. That means if you've planted yuchi clover in your mix then the plot should be thriving all the way through about the end of June without us doing anything other than maybe topping off our nutrients like (Ca, P, K) sometimes around March or early April right before spring jumps.

I'd like to get some kind of legume growing in the summer mix next year for the sake of N credits.
