So I'm getting ready to plant all my fall food plots, I will be using a no till drill and planting in dead grass and medium thatch. I will be planting oats and wheat in one box and winter peas in the other main box, it also had a clover box but I can't decide if I would be better broadcasting it before I drill or putting it in the box. What do you guys think ?
 
It really depends on how good of shape the drill is in. Most legume boxes are not in best shape on many drills. The metering system may not function well. Check it out before starting. I suggest calibrating always before believing the seeding chart.
 
If the clover box feeds reliably you can just undo the drop tubes and let the clover drop on top of the ground. Then you can plant the rest of your seed 3/4"-1" deep, entirely too deep for clover
