How will these temps that are coming affect my plots? Wheat, crimson clover, rye grain. They have come up good and are about a month old. Also, after this cold spell, would overseesing some wheat and rye do any good or has it gotten too cold?
 
Crimson clover does not tolerate cold very well. Wheat, and especially rye, can tolerate colder temperatures. The wheat and rye will grow on those warmer, sunshine days.

I personally wouldn't bother over-seeding anything. The best part, come spring, you'll have all three in your combo come up very well.
 
It knocked the crimson clover back pretty good. Wilted it. The rye and wheat just turned a lighter shade of geen. Hope it pops back some for late season. Was about 12 degrees a couple nights ago.
