Seems good. I use a similar type blend. I also and any seed I have extra of or is getting old.
Any recommendations for forb heavy cover crop mixes? Looking to cover about a tenth of an acre. Thinking about using cool season soil builder from greencover.com

What changes have you noticed from using this type of cover crop? I have extremely sandy soil so I’m hoping to build better structure and aggregation
My soil is sand/rock. In one year not too much of a difference. But I really noticed my soil structure improving each year after that. It now is starting to hold together. My inputs are also declining every year. Warning, if the soil is super low infertility it can be even hard to get a cover crop going. I think especially with sand bio char aids this whole process, if you have the material to create it.
I do have some char made along with 2 compost piles and 2 very active worm bins. Hoping to jack up soil biology and fertility in the next year
