No Till - First Time Food Plot

[@Rooster2628]

The best process video I have seen. I appreciate seeing it from start to finish with great detailed description.

[@JaredsShop]

I’m surprised it worked so well without getting the seed into the soil. Congrats. Looked great.

[@tomfitzgerald6666]

Did a great job Impressed!

[@Avrageoutdoorguy]

Very nice good job thanks for sharing

[@GunGuy258]

That's amazing. Thank you for the video.

[@juliusjames5577]

Really enjoyed you showing the end result. The only thing that could of made it better is showing us the huge Buck that came in.

[@Episode8wasgarbage]

Hey man, awesome job. One thing that made me happier than anything was the fact that i just bought a tractor today with a hog instead of going the cheaper(and probably smarter) route of the swisher like i was thinking about. I have 45 aces, 9 of which need cut 2-3x a year. It would have taken me ages to do 9 acers if that plot took 5 hours lol

[@bwyatt3367]

Groundhog Max fitted to your ATV. It doesn't really plow, but chops up the thatch really well

[@pmhum]

Well done video. Very helpful for newbies like me. Thanks!

[@RyanTN]

I have good luck with crimson clover and a tillage/forage radish, followed by cereal rye or winter wheat 2-3 weeks after. Seeds work great with a no till broadcast method down here in southern middle Tennessee. I get my seed from the local county coop.

[@timothybrewer7905]

Looks really good!

[@rebelyell9814]

Great video!!!!!!

[@courtneesdad]

Very informative 👍

[@9409savant]

Excellent great info👍👍

[@johnstobbscpa8081]

Thanks for showing the results ... helps very much!

[@lancebrinkley5637]

I have problems with clover coming up from no till. I have a ground hogg maxx atv disc i use to scratch the surface. I get great clover germination now. Great video, thanks!!

[@georgehelzer7569]

The one part of your plot turned out great! The one thing I will recommend is to seed right after you spray. I like the field to be about a foot tall to 3 foot tall, spray, seed and roll it. That will help protect the seed so much better than killing and letting it die off before planting. When the video started I didnt want you to cut it, but yeah, it needed it. That may have choked out a lot of seed. If you catch a dry year like im having now, you will appreciate that longer seed protection. Hope you had a good 21 season!

[@bunnyking100]

Great job sir

[@mikeree7375]

Thanks for the information.

[@benwicker5820]

One of the better videos on this . Thanks. I would have killed it before I mowed it . But that's just me .

[@timkaldahl]

Thank you for sharing your results.

[@scottellis8964]

GO DAWGS 😂 GREAT INFO BRO

[@pyromatic400]

What part of Southern Ohio did you purchase in we purchased in Scioto three years ago for our rec property

[@joelg1432]

Fall clover u should use an annual type. If your trying to establish a long term clover plot frost seed in February with the type u used in the video.

[@philipmontgomery5626]

Good video

[@lanelavender7188]

Great Video. I hope you are still active on here. I have a question. You mentioned starting with lime. Did you disk and apply the lime?

[@chevyheavy79]

If I did that on my property the deer would mow it down just as fast as it grows

[@Chauhuyentrang2015]

Great

[@noahvail4675]

Came up great but there was a lot of stuff there that I personally thought was a waste, next year go bush hog as low as absolute possible go put out all the seeds you want to grow. Keep a check on the weather the day before or minutes before it rains go put out your fertilizer. And let her rip. Dead grass is pure fertilizer in itself. You will save tons of money and time and get the same results

[@user-wk7py9zg2r]

Привет! Сколько осадков(воды, влаги) в год в Вашем регионе? hi! how much precipitation (moisture) per year in your region?

[@stephenaddair]

I racked all the leaves and planted 2 bags of throw and grow about month ago and nothing came up It rained everyday for a week after I planted it I don't know why nothing came up at all?

[@eliinthewolverinestate6729]

I use no till. I use a blue tarp to kill weeds and seeds. A blue tarp will burn a hole in a lawn in one sunny day. I recommend leaving tarp for 2 weeks. And then you can remove the blue tarp and plant that area.

[@alexgunner1882]

So you got hard soil and just throw buckwheat or whatever seeds and water them? That's it?

[@Whitetail101]

Iron makes it greener Clover likes shade :)

[@seanhoop5148]

Try frost seeding the clover. Best no till way for clover

[@jevers2010]

With all those passes, you should have just tilled it

[@GreatWhiteStud]

Did the deer hit the brassica hard? What state are you in? Here In east Tennessee deer will not touch them. But try winter peas. Deer will hit them hard..

[@tpuuup]

Good question, here in WV i used to do Brassicas and never got a hit. I'm trying it again in 3 of my food plots. What works best for me is clover, oats, and rye.

[@JayN4GO]

Deer will not eat brassica here in southeast KY

[@grutledge5358]

Did you inoculate your Clover seed

[@transamguy9073]

What county are u located in im in noble

[@andreaconner1786]

why all the chemicals if you are trying for soil health by no tilling?

[@tpuuup]

Yea that's my concern as well. I'm doing my food plots with a tractor using plow, disc to avoid spraying. Everything comes up pretty good, and i maintain my clover by just mowing it tall. I would rather use my 4wheeler and do the no till, cheaper equipment. My friend who used to spray his food plots had thyroid cancer when he hit 30, fairly young, scared me into stop spraying. Arguably that could have been from anywhere but just playing it safe. I'm wondering if there's a way to do no till without spraying.

[@coopertaylor9393]

He said he had no equipment so the no till was not because he was keeping soil healthy it was because he didn’t have tractor to get equipment to break the ground

[@erichanson9842]

Weeds still come back and take nutrients disking just turns soil

[@russellshirk1148]

He was using glyphosate to spray. Once it touches soil it is rendered useless and will no longer cause any harm to plants. Other weed killers such as 2-4d remain in the soil up to 4 weeks after spraying. Disking the soil constantly leads to more soil erosion/ loss of nutrients. Mow first and spray right after is the most effective way to kill all weeds and conserve nutrients that are in the soil. I plant buckwheat as a summer cover crop to prevent weeds from growing as much as possible. Spread seed into standing buckwheat then crimp it over. Spray with glyphosate to kill buckwheat and prevent weeds from competing with whatever you planted. Fertilize and lime as necessary. Soil tests are a must. You need proper soil ph for the plants to soak up all the nutrients they can get.

[@cericson3426]

​@@tpuuupwhen you plow you stir up more weed seeds The best way to do it is spray with glyphosate to kill everything although glyphosate is not my favorite and I don't like using it that often you got to get a kill broadcast right into it after you sprayed it and then leave it. If it is too tall you might have to mow it spray then broadcast seed right into it Been doing plots this way for the last 20 years planting food plots for almost 40 Also You're not trying to do an agricultural venture you're putting in a food plot a few extra weeds and native stuff isn't going to hurt anything

[@nonofyabizz1605]

impressive for virgin ground

[@isaacwhite6758]

So I am building a food plot and I don’t know whare you can send in your soil samples

[@ianlilley6430]

Mmmmmmmm where can I get me that round up ready venison 😅☠️

[@ammantophori]

Dude that was a good one 😅

[@shephusted2714]

why would you spray - nasty #monsanto

[@cocoyoco]

Spraying your food plot with poison. Interesting choice.

[@ryanweaver3615]

Poison? He sprayed glysophate, I’ve been putting that in my cereal for decades and no problems. Good job on the plot sir!
