I’ll add to that too that many of those field broadleafs are not the same one you typically find in the native burn units……Stuff like teaweed, florida pusley, pokeweed, etc…..I think its due to the high levels of calcium and balanced pH in my field along with high OM levels, etc……. different growing conditions

I’d also be willing to wager a guess that most of these clover fields you see are being grown in loamy to clay soil…..That’s a HUUUUGE factor in it……The picture of the exclusion cage above is being grown in pure sand and is only possible due to the high levels of soil organic matter……You cant achieve that with clover alone…..If you only grow clover long term then your OM levels are going to bottom out as you produce high levels of nitrogen and virtually no carbon…..Decomposition is still occurring even if you don’t plow
