Maximize your forage success this spring with the Frost Seed Bundle, combining Vitalize Alfalfa Edge™ and Vitalize Premium Clover+.

This carefully selected pairing is designed for frost-seeding or overseeding into existing fields, giving your forage a strong start even in challenging soils. The alfalfa provides grazing-tolerant, long-lasting forage, while the clover improves soil health, nitrogen fixation, and stand success.

Seeding Recommendations:

Apply at recommended rates: 6 lb - 12lbs per acre for frost seeding or over seeding - depending on new stand establishment or filling gaps in already established stand. 
Mix both seeds to create a resilient forage system that thrives under variable conditions and early spring pressure.

How to use:

Prepare Your Field

  • Ideal for existing perennial fields or new planting areas.
  • Works well across variable soil types and under light grazing pressure.

Seed the Bundle

  • Apply 6 lb per acre of the combined Alfalfa Edge and Premium Clover+ mix.
  • For monoculture plantings, follow recommended rates for each seed.

Support Stand Establishment

  • Alfalfa Edge establishes quickly and tolerates browsing.
  • Clover improves soil health, supports nitrogen fixation, and boosts overall stand success.


Maximize Early Spring Performance

  • Frost seeding ensures early growth and a resilient forage system.
  • Use light grazing or mowing after establishment to encourage healthy growth.

Vitalize Alfalfa Management Strategy

Alfalfa is a cornerstone perennial in our system. Its deep roots, nitrogen contribution, drought resilience, and elite forage quality make it extremely valuable. To maintain long-term productivity, it must be managed intentionally.

Years 1 into 2: Establish and Reinforce
Plant Alfalfa Edge and allow it to dominate.
During this phase, it is perfectly acceptable to frost seed or overseed with Alfalfa Edge to:
Maintain density
Fill in thin areas from browse pressure
Strengthen taproot development

This stage builds root mass, soil structure, and long term fertility.

Years 2 into 4: Natural Transition
As the stand matures, it will naturally shift toward greater clover presence.
At this point:
Begin overseeding with Premium Clover+
Allow clover and chicory to take the lead
Reduce additional alfalfa pressure

Each fall, overseed with Carbon Load to increase root diversity, stimulate soil biology, and help cycle older alfalfa residue.
Maintain this transition for approximately two seasons.

Reset and Repeat
As older alfalfa roots biologically cycle out, autotoxic effects naturally diminish. Once this reset occurs, you can confidently return to Alfalfa Edge and repeat the cycle.

No tillage. No termination. Just managed succession.
Build. Transition. Reset. Repeat.

That is the Vitalize system.
