Spring plot preparation

2 projects ongoing. 1) The acre of turnips/rape I put in last fall is now fully limed with 3200 lbs, and I'm spraying Roundup May 8. Will disk it under and put in #50 buckwheat and #100 19-19-19. 2) My middle acre is under a kill of Roundup as we speak to remove all grasses, so I can disk it, after which I will spray Roundup again as the broadleaf weeds will show up. Plans are to put in Durana Clover from Penningtonseed.com in late summer.
