Default RE: Broadcast Rate

If you are going to plant them all together, make sure they all need to be mowed at the same time, can be fertilized at the same rate with the same nutrient levels and PH requirements, etc.

You might be better off planting in sections, instead of all together. This way you have some options for ferts, mowing, herbicides etc. additionally you can plant a late season crop section, turnips, brassicas etc., that will come due around hunting season.

If you are planting together,broadcast them using 1/2 to 1/3 the recomended pounds per acre. Otherwise you will plant them on top of each other and many will die, just wasting money.
