Narrative:
I was solo practicing touch and go in PA-12. ATIS zulu reported winds at 270 or 260 and 10 knots. Crosswind practice consisted of a low pass; a wheel landing without touching the tail wheel down; a wheel landing until the tail dropped; a wheel landing to full stop; and another wheel landing. On the intended final landing I attempted a wheel landing to full stop but had too much right aileron on initial roll out; I reduced right aileron and veered to the left; upon entering the grass on the left of the runway I applied power and departed. I notified the tower that I was going to land at ZZZ. Upon landing and shutting down I called the tower as requested and was interviewed and asked if there was any damage or injuries; I reported that there was no damage or injuries. I was told that a report would be filed. Later that evening I brought the aircraft back to my parking as winds were reported at 360 and 6 knots on ATIS uniform.
