California Red Oats develop earlier than Monida or Cayuse White oats, but Monida or Cayuse White Oats have more leaf growth and therefore provide more organic matter, sometimes up to 14% more. Monida oats have a very similar growth habit to cayuse oats, but have a finer stem, which maker a better forage or hay oat than cayuse.

Zone 5B. Planted Organic Monida Oats with shelling peas as trellis for peas. Worked well as trellis until heavy rain and wind blew down one section, another storm blew down second section. Got 32 inches tall in 80 days. Organic matter was my main goal so I'm extremely happy. Might try more sturdy Cayuse White Oats as trellis for peas another time.
