Winter oats too but I didn’t have any seed this year. <br/><br/>In spring or early summer I can add buckwheat, alfalfa, bird’s foot trefoil, white clover, red clover, fenugreek, fodder radish and phacelia. 2024-09-27T12:52:10Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvew4r0pru6r5zrtm9jyxt0s9henq5h4e0q8juzk8pd2dfcqy8jlgzyzrv72fzm7un7y5akl39aeq5y23tpqxwmd5gx00zh3jyxm3hexxwy35xtxu In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswal66k3ujpprgr3vwngchmtkg6twenxuqy7y4nd22egxq9dvl32c9ss7hh'>nevent1q…s7hh</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I’ve been banging my head against this sort of thing for a while.
