I've got a new plot location inside of the woods. I am looking for a good shady seed blend that does well in shaded areas, 3-4 hours of decent sun a day. Does anyone have any recommendations and first hand use of a blend that worked great for them in a shaded spot. Thanks in advance!
AntlerKing NoSweat and Game Changer Clover. Works great for what you want. Just need good soil to seed contact.

I will first go on record by saying that if possible try to obtain 4-6 hours of sunlight in your location of choosing. However, if not possible I would recommend Grandpa Ray Outdoors Inner Sanctum Blend. 35% Buck Oats 20% Festuolium 10% Alsike Clover 10% Berseem Clover 10% Balansa Clover 10% Rape 5% Ladino Clover
