Additionally, its fast growth provides quick cover and a reliable food source for various animals, especially in the fall and winter months.

Benefits for Wildlife

Highly nutritious seeds – Rapeseed provides high-energy seeds that are a preferred food source for many species of wildlife.
Fast-growing – Ideal for fall food plots, it matures quickly, offering wildlife immediate forage.
Attractive foliage – The leaves are also palatable to grazing wildlife, such as deer and rabbits.
Fall and winter food – Once matured, the seeds can be left on the plant for a prolonged food source.
Excellent for attracting birds – The seeds draw songbirds, pheasants, and other bird species.

Planting Guidelines for Rapeseed

  • Planting Times:

    • Spring (early March to April) for early harvest or late summer (mid-July to August) for a fall and winter food source. The growing season typically takes 90–100 days to reach maturity.
  • Seeding Depth:

    • 1/2–1 inch deep to ensure proper germination and good seed-to-soil contact.
  • Seeding Rates:

    • Drilled: 5–8 lbs per acre for optimal plant establishment and coverage.
    • Broadcast: 8–12 lbs per acre; lightly incorporate the seed into the soil to improve germination rates.
  • Days to Maturity:

    • Typically 90–100 days from planting to seed maturity, depending on growing conditions.
  • Height at Maturity:

    • Can grow up to 3–5 feet tall, depending on soil fertility and environmental factors.
  • Drought Tolerance:

    • Moderate – While rapeseed is somewhat drought-tolerant, it requires adequate moisture during its growing period for best results.
  • Saturated Soil Tolerance:

    • Low – Prefers well-drained soils and does not tolerate waterlogging. Excessive moisture can lead to root diseases.
  • Shade Tolerance:

    • Low – Requires full sun for optimal growth and seed production.

Fertilization Guidelines for Rapeseed

  • Soil pH:

    • Prefers a slightly acidic to neutral soil pH between 6.0–7.5 for ideal growth.
  • Nitrogen (N):

    • Apply 40–60 lbs of nitrogen per acre for optimal vegetative growth, especially in nitrogen-deficient soils. However, avoid over-application as it can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of seed production.
  • Phosphorus (P) & Potassium (K):

    • Ensure sufficient phosphorus for root development, applying around 30–40 lbs per acre, and potassium for overall plant health and resistance to diseases, around 30–50 lbs per acre.

Fertilization Timing:

  • Fertilizers should be applied at planting or pre-planting, with nitrogen often applied as a split application – half at planting and the other half when plants reach the rosette stage.

Herbicide Use for Rapeseed

  • Weed Control:

    • Rapeseed can be susceptible to competition from weeds, especially during early growth. Proper weed control is essential for healthy crop development.
  • Pre-emergence Herbicides:

    • Herbicides like Pendimethalin and Trifluralin can be used to control weeds before the crop emerges. These are typically applied just after planting.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.
