RE: Germination rates needed
1- Winter wheat 5-7 days
2- Oats " "
3- Rape 8-10 days
4- Ladino clover 10-14 days
In my experience.
The cereal grains will grow very fast as well - 6-8" in 3-4 weeks
The Rape loves Nitrogen, and will also grow kind of fast if N is adequate
Of course Ladino is sloooow growing the first fall. If you get 2-3" consider yourself very lucky - it takes time for the roots to develop enough to fix N, and get going. Rest assured they will come on good in June Next year.
Rape is a funny plant. It is supposed to be an annual, but I had quite a bit come back from last year's planting. From the roots too, not from reseeding. We did have a mild winter by our standards though.
