Default RE: Tecomate ultra forage?

I sure do have some thoughts on this seed. The deer loved it! We planted it this spring and it is all gone now. The only thing left in the plots we planted it in is a little bit of chicory. We couldn't believe they would eat it so early in the year because it isn't supposed to be sweet until frost hits. By about mid-July it was all gone. Up until that point it grew very well. It looked like a field of lettuce. Theonly reason we can think they ate it so early in the year is that almost all of the bean fields around us didn't get planted until late June because of the flooding earlier in June. They must have been hungry enough to eat whatever they could find.

So in short yeah for me that stuff worked great. Just don't forget to lime and fertilize it and it should grow very well. Also one thing we learned when planting it is to not seed it very thick. The turnips need some room to grow. Good luck!
