Hello Everyone,
Can someone help me understand frost-seeding? I am guessing that you
simply cast seed on frost-heaved ground and that the seed finds its way into
the ground as the frost melts. But where I live we get say 3-4 feet of snow
on the ground most of the winter. Should I cast the seed onto the snow?
Will a warm day with a melting top side give enough water to germinate the
seed when it is still above the soil? Specifically, I would like to
frost-seed red clover seed into fall planted rye. Should I plant the clover
before or after the snow instead?
