[QUOTE="FishinRN, post: 158688, member: 1226"] I started my 2 plots from scratch this spring breaking virgin ground in 1 spot and land in the middle of an evergreen grove not farmed since the trees were planted about 20 years ago. Sent soil samples and was pleased with the results. I planted clover after 2 vigorous diskings in April, I think a combination of cooler, drier, and windy conditions greatly compromised my germination. I have a good deal of regrowth to battle as well and have been spraying roundup on the other half of these plots to prepare for later summer brassica planting. I think I will check in 1 more week and unless the clover starts to really take off I will just spray the whole thing and reseed all with brassica for this year. I seriously underestimated the amount of regrowth I would get, wish I would have sprayed roundup last year before breaking ground this spring. I would definitely second the idea of planting something roundup ready the first attempt. Despite less than extraordinary results on my first attempt, I have really had a good time working on this project. [/QUOTE]
