Default Year 2 food plot question

Hey guys,

I had an awesome food plot last year thanks to stuff I read on this site!

In the summer last year I sprayed roundup and mowed down to bare dirt to prep the plot. I sent my soil off to get tested, and then after a hunt club member dished my small woods clearing (a pine plantation log loading deck) , I added the recommended rates of fertilizer and lime, and then seeded 2 Lbs Durana Clover seed and 10 lbs Winter Rye (wintergrazer 70) seed in the last week of September before 3 days of heavy rains. It attracted deer/bear/rabbits/bobcats/yotes/turkey all season long starting with Muzzleloader 5 weeks later and I killed my first two deer ever over it.

Now the clover is doing great!

Here is my question - Can I add another 10 lbs Winter Rye to it again? Or should I let it be pure clover this year?
