The Charlotte blend consists of Tillage Radish, Triticale and Crimson Clover. Tillage Radish breaks up soil compaction with its aggressive taproot. This unique nitrogen storage tank holds N and other nutrients over winter and releases them as needed by following cash crops. Triticale soaks up additional N in the fall as well as in the spring, keeping the N from leaching until a cash crop can utilize it. Crimson Clover adds up to 50 lbs of additional N in the spring.
