Default RE: S.E. Ohio red clay plots

If it's like my red clay from the Niagara Peninsula:

- let it dry out before trying to work it
- plow then disc or even better fall plow then disc
- after adjusting the pH sweet clover and red clover have done well but you should be able to grow any of the grain crops (corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley)
- apples, pears and plums should do quite well as their drainage requirements aren't too great
