Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a nutrient-rich, perennial legume widely grown for livestock forage and wildlife food plots. It provides high protein, long-term forage production, and soil improvement through nitrogen fixation.

Benefits for Wildlife

High protein content (15–25%) supports deer, turkey, rabbits, and pollinators.
Long-lasting perennial (3–5+ years) with proper management.
Drought-tolerant due to deep root system.
Attracts pollinators and small game while improving soil health.

Planting Guidelines

  • Planting Times:

    • Spring: March–May (after last frost).
    • Late Summer/Fall: August–September (at least 6 weeks before first frost).
  • Seeding Depth: ¼ to ½ inch (shallow planting is essential for good germination).

  • Seeding Rates:

    • Drilled: 12–15 lbs per acre using a no-till or conventional drill.
    • Broadcast: 18–20 lbs per acre, followed by dragging or cultipacking for soil contact.
  • Days to Maturity: 60–70 days for first full bloom, with multiple cuttings per season.

  • Drought Tolerance: High – Deep roots help withstand dry conditions.

  • Saturated Soil Tolerance: Low – Does not tolerate waterlogged conditions. Prefers well-drained soils.

  • Shade Tolerance: Low – Requires full sun for optimal growth.

Fertilization Guidelines for Alfalfa

Alfalfa requires proper fertilization to maintain high yields, improve persistence, and support its nitrogen-fixing ability. Since it fixes its own nitrogen (N), fertilization focuses on phosphorus (P) and potassium (K).

Key Fertilization Needs

  • Soil pH: 6.5–7.0 (Apply lime if pH is below 6.2).
  • Phosphorus (P): 40–80 lbs P₂O₅ per acre per year for strong root development and energy transfer.
  • Potassium (K): 150–250 lbs K₂O per acre per year to improve winter survival and disease resistance.

Fertilization Timing & Application

  • Pre-Plant: Apply P, K, and lime based on soil test results.
  • Annual Maintenance: Top-dress P, K, and S in fall or early spring.

Herbicide Use for Alfalfa

Proper weed management in alfalfa is essential for maximizing yield and stand longevity. Herbicide selection depends on whether the crop is newly seeded or established, and if it is dormant or actively growing.

Key Herbicide Types & Timing

  • Pre-Plant & Pre-Emergence (Before or Just After Seeding)

    • Eptam (EPTC) – Incorporated before planting for annual grass and some broadleaf weed control.
    • Balan (Benefin) – Pre-plant incorporation for small-seeded broadleaf and grass weed control.
  • Post-Emergence (After Alfalfa Emerges or in Established Stands)

    • Raptor (Imazamox) – Controls grasses and broadleaf weeds in seedling or established stands.
    • Pursuit (Imazethapyr) – Selective broadleaf and grass control.
    • Velpar (Hexazinone) – Applied during dormancy for winter annual weed control (avoid sandy soils).
    • Metribuzin (Sencor) – Used during dormancy for residual broadleaf weed control.
    • Gramoxone (Paraquat)Burn-down herbicide for dormant alfalfa before spring regrowth.

Key Considerations

  • Check labels for timing and rates based on alfalfa growth stage.
  • Avoid herbicide injury by following soil and weather recommendations.
  • Rotate herbicides to prevent weed resistance.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.
