I don't think clover would have ever competed in first plot, so did you cut back the seed rate with the clover mix or what?
I didn't till that little plot, just sprayed it and later broadcasted during a steady rain. The only reason the berseem clover is in there is cuz I threw the rest of a bag of "secret spot" in with some turnips and I am also very surprised the clover is growing at all. Based on what the little bag contents say, the only thing really doing well is the rape. But i agree, the berseem wouldn't have had a chance in the purple tops and seven tops I don't think.
