Looking good Pat! Mine is coming in nicely too, I'll try to take some pics tomorrow for you.

 

looks good Pat, now it's all about the waiting game till fall!

 

Sweet plots.... Hopefully all the hard work pays off

 

Looks like some tender vittles there.

I need to check on mine too. Been almost 2 weeks since I've been there.

 

nice work man! hopefully it will pay off this fall and you take a monster off of one

 

Looks good Pat.

Any drawbacks to planting a fall plot this early?

 

Maybe more weeds ? I am not sure this is my 1st swing at it

I will probably have to mow it a couple times unless the deer keep it trimmed down

 

You know, I was going to ask about mowing. I planted in march this one I havent taken pics of it in a while. The one I uploaded was in the middle of May. It is now almost waist high. I planted Evolved Harvest Shot Plot. Should they be mowed?

Your plots look good by the way. I would like to see pictures of it later on.

 

Lookin Good Pat!!!

 

I would mow them about once a month set the mower as high as it will go.

I will post more pictures as my plots grow. I have 9 more to do about mid-July

 

Pat, that plot looks great. What's in that Frigid Forage mix?

 

Wild Game Buffet This all-around mix of perennials and bi-annuals takes into account most conditions (sun-shade, wet-dry, soil types, drainage, slope, traffic, etc.). Its varying rates of germination and maturation ensure there is a preferred plant age and type at any given time to satisfy all the hungry critters feeding on it. This blend is devoured by deer and upland birds alike. Its seeding rate if seeded properly is 8-10 lbs per acre. It contains; Mammoth Red Clover, Medium Red Clover, Alsike Clover, White Dutch Clover, Ladino Clover, Dwarf Essex Rapeseed, Perennial Ryegrass, Creeping Red Fescue, and Vernal Alfalfa.

Monster Magnet This all-around mix of annuals is a high nutrition smorgasbord for your deer herd. It offers protein levels up to 40%, and is forage heaven for your deer. There is no other annual mix available on the market that is as radically different or as successful at producing a healthier herd of larger deer. If seeded properly, it’s seeding rate is approximately 50 lbs. per acre (seems like a lot, but is due to the larger seed size). This mix contains Black Oil Sunflowers, Spring Peas, Soybeans, Sugar Beets, Forage Turnips, Mancan Buckwheat, Hairy Vetch, and Winter Rye.

 

Plots look good Pat! We need some rain on my side of the state! I'll be planting the Big & Beasty Brassicas real soon.
