This strip was grass rotationally grazed down low around Aug 1. I spread P, K & S to a soil test + 50 lb/a of N then no till drilled 2 bu of winter rye (in the drill's large seed box) and too much radish and turnip seed (in the drill's small seed box) on Aug 10th or 11th. I planted each as if they were the only crop but next year will plant turnips and radishes at half that recommended rate. I don't recall the exact rates but can be looked up.

We were very dry through Aug and much of Sept so it started slow and I thought wouldn't amount to much. But have had a lot of rain since the end of Sept and the mix took off, esp in the cooler temperatures lately.  I planted the radishes to break up compaction but the cows seem to like them as well as the turnips. Even calves have developed a taste for the bulbs.

I have seen some posts on crop talk of folks planting a radish cover mix in NC then Pluribus strip tilling corn into it in the spring.
