[QUOTE="Tymurrey, post: 226383, member: 859"] First year in a long time I put in a food plot. Broke up 12 acres this spring/summer. Planted a little over 2 acres in millet and grain sorghum in early june for the pheasants but the lack of rain hasn’t helped me much. I put in 6 acres last Friday with 150lbs of oats, 100 lbs winter peas, 10 lbs jackhammer radish, 10lbs dwarf Essex rape, 10lbs kale, and 10lbs of purple top turnip. I also mixed in a 5 gallon bucket of sunflower seed even though I know they won’t mature but maybe the deer will still munch on the green stems. Got about .20” of rain Friday night on the powder dry soil so not sure if it will germinate and die or hopefully wait for more rain. I have 250lbs of winter rye that I will seed over the 6 acres in late August as a fail safe plan if rain starts. I really need the plot to grow as I moved my stands planning on the deer going there to eat and don’t want to move them again. Waiting on the other 4 acre plot until next year so I can get the weeds under control in that one better. Hoping to put in 10 acres of alfalfa this coming spring or next fall depending on availabe funds. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I also put in 4 acres of switchgrass this last March and I am seeing some patches of it but need to spray it next spring. I would like to do another 6-8 acres of it this winter and maybe mix some sweet clover in with it. [/QUOTE]
