Was thinking about wheat and double crop beans. If you broadcast wheat seed in standing beans how much growth can wheat get... Then get shaved off with the bean head. Then grow again?

how tall can winter wheat be in the fall and still survive freezing temps? Is there a point in growth of winter wheat where it can be too far along to over winter? What's the earliest you have seen fall sowed wheat mature in the spring?

What about planting 30 inch soy into standing wheat that's 3 weeks from combining? Looking into double crop and push seeding into standing crops for better growth. Will it work? Broadcasting wheat before rain into soybeans 3 weeks before harvest and planting 30 in soy 3 weeks before winter wheat harvest the next year?

Thanks


Wheat has to go through Vernalization. It will only tiller in the fall until you get killing frost/freeze. Rye is the same. If you want tonnage for fall a crop like oats needs to be planted because it doesn't require vernalization.
