Further thought plant something that flowers between flows (so once OSR goes over) and or after main flow - best to have some plants when there are gaps
My missus has access due to her degree to scientific journals so I've been looking into OSR and apparently you can be safe if they can't see it (if they can see it they will travel up to 3 miles to get to it) and there is enough forage between you and it but yeah I'm stuffed so I'd better read up on how best to market solid honey
I think to compete with grass my best bet is perennials and not annuals as they will have a root system ready established and shoot up past the grass before it can suppress seedlings.
I have read golden rod is good as it's late flowering, spreads like crazy etc and is perennial. I just need to figure out if it will appreciate my soil
