    Great pics.

    For reference, what seed was used, what part of the country are you located, and what has the weather been like lately there?

    these are two of my own custom blends, one is a mix of six differn't brassicas called freak show forage, the other is a mix of three brassicas and two clovers I call intro, both are available on my website. The weather has been a little on the cooler side in august. we have had around an inch and a half of rain since planting spread out every 10 or so days. the biggest thing with brassicas is fertilizer. I spread at least 300 pounds of 19-19-19 to the acre. the intro I spread 100 pounds of triple 19 to the acre.
