Advice? Want to know what to do and have a plan for when the season ends.

I typically keep separate fall & spring plots. My spring plot I plow in the summer, plow again in February/March, & plow right before planting in late March/early April.

My fall food plot I plow in late summer and then right before planting in late September/October.

I have some clover and chicory in this plot with brassicas and oats. I know the clover and chicory are perennials but you suggesting just to turn that into green manure and plow/disc come spring anyways?

If that's the case I would just plan to fertilize in early spring & shred in the summer.

2 different types of white clover. It's a mix from Domain Outdoors. Problem is the lack of rain, hoping we get some soon. Otherwise this post would've been pointless

If it's white clover, you're likely in E or SE Texas with some acidic soils and rain. Usually I don't recommend "double cropping" on food plots due to moisture constraints. With the perennial broadleafs as your winter feature, you might get by with it where it normally rains. You might consider an over the top grass killer before the summer plots, and if at all possible, no till drill the summer stuff.

You have a fall plot already?

I got seed in the dirt with no rain to grow it

It's more like I'm hoping to have a fall plot that has seed in the dirt but no water lol. I should've been worded it more along the lines of if it grows
