I guess I just need to complain. I overseeded my top native pasture with a mix of ryes and clover. I was totally excited because for once I did it in perfect conditions.

Well my “clover” turns out was all wood sorrel. :/

Just bummed out and needed to vent I suppose

Oh man, that sucks. Maybe you could run some hogs through it to root it all up.

Unfortunately I don’t have that option. Though I’m currently off work for an injury I’m usually out of town for work so i can’t take on animals that need daily care.

I guess you can hope for a scorching hot and dry summer to kill most of it off. But those bulbs are tenacious and some of them seed like mad. We have a couple of types of oxalis coming up everywhere on the property, including pots in the glasshouse. It's a plague.
