NYBuckHunter27 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I know its early but i plan on frost seeding my now brassica plots this winter, i was just wondering when i should plan on frost seeding these plots? and will i have any issues frost seeding over the dead brassicas? Anyone have good experience with certain seed types for frost seeding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) Not sure what type of brassica you planted....Or what you want to try and frost seed....but with what I plan the frost seeding is done late winter when there is a consistent thaw freeze cycle...

Pav2704 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I know its early but i plan on frost seeding my now brassica plots this winter, i was just wondering when i should plan on frost seeding these plots? and will i have any issues frost seeding over the dead brassicas? Anyone have good experience with certain seed types for frost seeding? Last year I frost seeded clover over my brassica plot the last weekend of March. At that point, the plot was totally wiped out and I figured I had nothing to lose. When I headed back up in May for turkey I reseeded some spots where it looked like it needed it. By June I had to mow the clover down. Plot looked great... I would definitely give it a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYBuckHunter27 Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 thanks everyone. and yeah i just plan on seeding with a clover maybe chicory mix. My brassicas didn't do so hot this year so im hoping to get some nutrition back into the ground and than maybe try oats or winter wheat for a fall plot. Was there a certain brand of seed you guys use for clover seedings or whatever your planning to plant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burmjohn Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I was going to give this a try in a spot where there is some wild grass growing this year. Figured why not. Sent from my LG-VS980 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
