food plot of sorts question

[TNDeerGuy]

In my backyard I have a small foodplot that is right at the edge of the woods so my family can watch the critters from the house. I planted it late last summer (wheat, oats, clover) and the deer absolutely hammered it. It is still growing well and is about 7 inches tall now. My question is should I mow it down to a reasonable height since it is still growing, or just leave it alone until late summer and turn it over and re-plant? I'm using this "backyard plot" as an experiment, until I get my own land to hunt and get off of public land. Any help suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

the wheat and oats will die out either way. the clover can be mowed.
