[QUOTE="Texasmark, post: 1456544, member: 27848"] I mixed it with Austrian Field Peas.....we'll see how it goes. Did the peas last year with no fert. Plowed them in the spring and came right back with Gotcha Plus SS. Got two nice cuttings before the Sugar Cane Aphids hit me again. No Fert other than peas. Peas are the same $ as the other seeds, except Teff. Ordered from local farm store. Good folks. Can get you most anything you want. Planted 50# to the acre for a thick stand. Last year it was an iffy stand and with the results I got I am hoping the peas will do the winter rye and the summer crop. Thinking about Milo for the summer hay crop. Lots of big, long leaves and short stems which will yield to a crimper when cut before the boot and maturity. Looking for a thick, shorter producer. Seems I can work shorter crops and get them dried and baled better than long ones....just get tangled up in themselves. I just finished baling a neighbor's Milo stubble which came back strong in the drought we had this summer and early fall. It already had the 3rd set of shoots coming on strong before I could get off the field. No SC Aphids on that field and half a mile from my place and much larger area. Maybe I can get 2 or 3 cuttings.....would be nice for a change. If it works, I'll add some NPK to the mix next year and maybe leave be on the rye . [/QUOTE]
