No-Till Garden Farm and Garden Cover Crop Mix Seeds - 5 Lbs - Blend of Gardening Cover Crop Seeds: Hairy Vetch, Daikon Radish, Forage Collards, Triticale, More

Seeds germinated fast and are growing well, excellent ground for my needs. Really happy with this.

So far doing good

I "planted" this mix 2 days ago (June 29th). Scattered it on bare ground my chickens had plucked just about clean. Sprinkled some topsoil on it and watered, then had a good rain that night. Next day, most had already sprouted. Day after that, some sprouts are a half inch tall. I planted this mix as an experiment to see if I could provide fresh forage for my chickys without them destroying the yard, and so far so good. I'm trying to experiment with rotational foraging, so one part of the chicken yard gets less pressure and is allowed to recover quickly. So far, I'm pretty happy with this mix in terms of germination, fast growth and variety. We'll see how the chickens like it and if it can (hopefully) stand up to their voracious foraging. Will most likely be ordering and planting more.

Grows fast and well

Planted within days of being sowed. Put a little peet moss over the top and watered lightly. We did get consistent rain after so make sure to keep wet if there are dry conditions for you. Wet but not soaked or drowned. You just don't want them drying out while planting. The peet moss also helped keep birds away long enough until they got some roots. Birds coming for remainder of seeds is actually good as their droppings fertilize what is sprouting.

Amazing germination! Spread this in several places in my yard during active showers. Sprouts appeared in 3-7 days and grew easily and quickly. Needed to give the chickens forage greens and restore the yard after a winters worth of scratching and dust bathing. They loved it! Made the yolks gorgeous and rich, customers said the eggs taste so good, and I agree. Will continue to buy when needed.

I was skeptical about this because the price was a bit steep and I'd never tried ground covers for my raised garden beds but I'll never do it any other way again. It's been great for my garden over the winter months, and I have to admit that seeing green in the middle of winter is refreshing.I scattered the seed in the empty beds in fall and didn't give them another thought. Germination rate was excellent. Now in near-spring, I've pulled up the growth from some beds and laid the greens back in the soil to compost. The soil was very easy to turn with a pitchfork as soon as we had ground thaw and it looks beautiful. I'm sold!

I spread a bag last year and the seeds started growing within a few days. This year, I did the exact same thing and nothing! Not one single see has germinated in a week.Update: it’s been several weeks and the seeds are finally starting to sprout. Still nothing like last year, but at least there’s some green showing now.
