[QUOTE="MrBilly, post: 85706, member: 87"] Several things. The Cheyenne Bermuda seed is not supposed to revert back to common according to Pennington. As for the legume box on a no-till drill, you need such a box because the clover seed is very very small and the legume box allows for placing out small amounts. One uses this same box for the Cheyenne Bermuda seed since it too is very small. To Chuckies question regarding baling clover, this is the response I received from Dr. Carl Hoveland at the University of Georgia, "Making hay from any kind of white clover is a big challenge as it has such a high water content. It CAN be done but it will take very good drying weather and careful work to keep the dry leaves from falling off the petioles. Of course, if one can dry it decently, then it will be outstanding hay. As for the height of Durana vs Regal ladino, it would be very difficult to say that Regal is always taller. The best way to distinguish differences between them is the leaf size - Durana leaves are smaller than ladino clover. You should also find more leaves close to the ground and more stolons on grazed stands of Durana than Regal ladino. Carl" That's if for today. Billy [/QUOTE]
