I've got a new area we opened up last winter. I've planted buckwheat in it and it's growing great. It's blooming now. What should I do to convert this to winter rye and clover this fall? Will I need to spray it with gly or will mowing do it in? I figure I'll plant the winter rye and white clover combo and maybe some oats. It will be throw and wait approach. I can mow but, didn't know which order would be best. These are photos from a couple weeks ago. image hosting private

I haven't grown Buckwheat in a long time. But I think you can just mow it and it will die.

I did buckwheat last yr but it grew up with enough grass in it I had to spray gly. Spray, wait, broadcast, mow is my routine.

If you don't have a lot of weeds I'd just mow it.
