I am new to planting food plots and just have couple questions I wanted to ask so Im better prepared next time. When do you guys go out and get your sample for the next growing season? Do you get a sample done for spring and fall or just one for both? How long does it take to get your results back? Any other advice would be great also. Thanks everyone.
I get mine done once a year in the spring...as far as turn around time, you'll have to contact your local extension office and see. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
i've found that sending a sample to whitetail institute is about as quick as using anyone locally. easy to read results emailed within about a week or so.
do you do one sample per a certain amount of acres? or if your plots are a little spread out... say 200 yards away?
I'd take a sample for multiple locations. You'll be money ahead because you get the exact fertilizer and lime you need for each one. I took 3 soil samples in and was e-mailed results in 24 hours.
