Anyone here do any small food plots for deer? When I say small, I am talking 1/4 of an acre at a max to very small, say 50' x 50'. We have several small areas we would like to plant. Some will be bow hunting stand locations while others may be general attracting and feeding plots. We will have access to tractor and disk for some plots but would like to keep them minimum till if possible (so are just so small). We'd be looking at late September to December plots. And, any food that will help the critters over-winter would be great. At this point I don't think we'll be able to plant much for spring/summer plots.
There are a million companies out there selling seeds of different varieties. From the little research I have done, brassicas or something similar may fit the bill well. Any recommendations of seed type, companies, etc.? What other advice would you give?
What have you experienced with small plots like this? Worth the time or not?
Thanks!
