My clover patches were burned to a cinder. So I had a little time, which is unusual, and I had the following

Grazer max wheat 50
4 kinds of oats 20
Several kinds of clover 10
Rape 5
Radish 5
Kale 5
Peas 5

Guessing at %.

Got it scratched up pretty good just before the rain Sunday night.

Will I get any good out of this planting this year?

I'm in the same boat - should be fine, especially with the wheat and smaller seed - rape, clovers, etc....

I spread the remainder of all my seed Friday. As hard as it's rained here, that seed will have been beat down through the thatch to make good soil contact.

My mix included:
wheat
forage rape
crimson clover
purple top turnips
eco-till radishes
AWP's

All the big seed & clover will be fine. It's a little late to expect much out of the brassicas as they really need 60 days before first frost for max growth. Matter of fact, I planted a bunch of them back in August that were doing great until rain shut off, replanted all of them last week with wheat, rye & crimson.

If your crispy clover is Landino or similar, it'll be fine with the rain & cool weather. I have almost 30 acres of it that should come back strong over the next 5 weeks - good luck!
