yes, expand the plots! Should be fun, but also looks like you need more food. Hopefully 3.5 acres is enough, but if they eat it all down I'm sure that you'll plant fall plots in them or till them under if too small. Good luck!

They will get tilled under no matter what kapper. If they eat them down or not. I’m fencing them off for about 30-45 day’s to start out then letting them have at it. Whatever is left come mid August they will get tilled under and a fall plot will be planted with wheat oats and rye and some brassicas. 👊

Very good video and topic, don’t be afraid to leave those big stumps if possible, it will keep the tree from sucking the nutrients out of the ground. Can’t wait to see the videos progress this summer, good job

Dave, first off thank you for sharing all this valuable information. This places things in great perspective prior to me getting my first ever food plot going. I’m reading that Egyptian Wheat is an annual, so each year do you just over seed that or till in and re-seed? Do you use anything else for screening? Thanks again...
@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors4 жыл бұрын
Thanks appreciate it. Yes correct it’s a annual so you’ll replant it each year. The following year just till it under and replant. It’s very good for the soil as well. I don’t use anything else for screening just Egyptian wheat. But that’s for my situation and depending on what reason you are screening.

Dave, thanks for sharing. What’s your thoughts on first spring planting for a small transition food plot on good treated soil. Clover or Buckwheat? And why?
@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors4 жыл бұрын
Joe Toth depends on the situation. How big of plot? Lots of sun? Are you planning on discing again to plant a fall plot?
@joetoth10804 жыл бұрын
Two, Quarter acre plots, lots of sun, and I can till or disk if needed. Cost is similar work seems to be bit more with Buckwheat. Wondering if BW is a better preparation for fall plot planting (nutrition) or is clover better to plant over providing some perennial growth on the understory? Might be splitting hairs..

Joe Toth well nutrition wise I wouldn’t really worry about that. Those 1/4 acre plots isn’t very large to provide enough nutrition for long periods of time. Those small plots I would plant annual clovers for browse pressure. If they were larger plots I would plant buck wheat. Both are good just used for different reasons. Plant annual clovers and then disc those in come late summer and go ahead and plant your fall plot about 50 days before first frost.

Winter rye is very hardy, I prefer it over winter wheat what you think?
@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors4 жыл бұрын
This video doesn’t have anything to do with winter wheat or rye. I’m planting this for the spring and summer. With that said. Winter rye is the least palatable thing you can plant for deer. It has its place because it stays green. Everything has its place. It’s like a tool Box. Always best to plant a mix. Can’t go wrong with wheat oats and rye.
