Adirondack PeakBlend
Adirondack PeakBlend is a cool-season cover crop mixture combining oats, crimson clover, and radish — a grass, legume, and broadleaf combination designed to accomplish most cover crop objectives while minimizing termination risk in the spring.
Oats and radish will winterkill with three nights in the mid-teens, allowing producers to focus solely on terminating crimson clover in the spring. This makes it an ideal choice for producers who prefer to avoid the termination challenges sometimes associated with cereal rye, triticale, or annual ryegrass.
Seed comes pre-inoculated with crimson clover inoculant. Inter-seeding is supported — contact a specialist for details.
