Maybe not the norm. I would like to plant food for the deer that stay around our house. We are on just an acre, in city limits, next to a highway. There are right under 20 deer that stay close to our house. We have new neighbors that are clearing about 7 acres of land. Like to plant food for them away from our garden. We have it closed off to the deer, but i see them eyeing it. Lol. Nit sure if during the summer it is normal for them to be very thin. I dont know much at all about deer, but would like to have an area on our property for them to eat. 🤷‍♀️

I appreciate all the knowledge you give us, I had a plot fail a couple years ago and the winter rye saved my tail and I managed to hold a few deer with just rye much appreciated thank you!!!!

Sure glad I watched this one! Thank You, I didn't know this about rye, & I've been messing with food plots from the beginning- well over 20 years

If there is anyone out there that can't figure out foodplots, after finding your KZfaq channel........well then..... Thanks again Jeff

I’m a big fan of the brassica. Had good luck with it last year.

Jeff you nailed it ! We had rain in the forecast for 3 days in a row so we got out there and got it done and it’s sprouted in 4 days looking good! Thank you for all the great info!!

I appreciate how your videos have evolved, always keeps me engaged. Definitely chomping at the bit to plant, just need to remain patient.

love your videos! me and my buddy take a drink every time you say "u p of michigan" i cant walk

Jeff the food plot PhD. Thanks for all the great teachings. Rain is a bit early here in SW Michigan but seed goes in next weekend. Peas, Oats, and Brassicas with extra Daikon Radish; rye 4 weeks later. Let's hope for rain. Can't wait for October.

I broadcast my brassicas last evening ahead of the expected rain here in central Illinois. I will be waiting for the soybeans to drop their leaves in September and then spread the cereal rye in two week intervals through late October.

Once again, good info thanks

Thanks Jeff for the good info. Made the mix mistake last year . Rye did save me with the drought in PA last year.

Great vid, I always appreciate you sharing your years of knowledge for free with us. I've slowly implemented your designs, blends and hunting strategies year after year and continue to see improvements and better hunting on my small property.

Im doing the same things this year. I bought the brassica blend this year. Southwest wi. Platteville. Hope to get everything planted this weekend. Also going to to do the oates, peas and winter rye. I love your info i watch almost all your videos.

I made the mistake of planting my rye too early one year and it was a disaster. Once it jointed, deer wouldn't touch it. One thing I've learned is to plant enough rye close to the brassicas so the deer will hit the rye early and let the brassicas grow awhile. Planting brassicas in a plot isolated from other food has always resulted in the deer hammering them early and they're done before November.

Have to plant late August in Southern Ohio, hopefully my brassica’s will have enough time to mature. Nice video

Thanks Jeff... Excellent info, as always.

Yep deer ateth tops of turnips and left the bulb till snow hit then they dig em up

Ty my brother just gonna walk at a normal pace no running 😂

Appreciate content very much and although I don't own any deer hunting land and hunt public but because of really believing in WHS whether it's crops or hunting,I've steered a few people your way. Also shooting bow from sitting position at your suggesting in tree stand is a challenge .thank you though I'm working on it

Right On Jeff another great information video. I have a heavy wooded area on my property do you recommend to make a food plots. Thank You for all the great videos you produced each and week

Advise on what to do. Buckwheat went to seed before we could spread peas, oats, beans.

Probably not gonna get to it till next spring

Hi jeff! you are very appreciated! changed every aspect of my hunt! Can I mix plot start and Glyphosate and spray my brassicas when I plant my seed? Can I spray my brassicas with glyphosate and plot boost at the same time? Trying to add an additional kill to the plot. Just closed on my new house and 60 acres, trying to do what is best, most efficient and most affective for this fall. Thanks!

What a great video ❤️

Hi Jeff, thank you so much for your wealth of knowledge! I purchased some sweet feast brassica blend this year that you recommended. Are you cutting the sweet feast blend in half and adding half more tillage radish? I just wanted to clarify that as I know the blend already has tillage radish in it . I appreciate your help.

This doesn’t relate to this particular video and I’ve seen you do one before but I can’t find it. If I were to buy a property to both live on an hunt with one acre preserved for housing, how big would that parcel need be to efficiently draw in a healthy population or does and bucks

can you plant turnips in pasture field without burning it off or glyphosating it? Second, can you mix with turnips with clover on a killed off plot

Jeff, I really enjoy your content. I'm in SC and decided to try your no-till method. I've planted buckwheat twice this spring and summer in a plot as a cover crop. Both times, the deer let it sprout and grow for a couple of weeks before eating it into the ground overnight! Any suggestions of preventing this situation?

Hey Jeff what’s your recommendation for smaller plots that are grazed to heavily for the plot to mature and produce

Another great video Jeff ! When is the best time to plant rye in SW Wisconsin ? September 1st ? Is it ok to mix rye with peas?

Can you tell me the ratio Roundup to water for a backpack sprayer. You mention so much per acre but I can’t break that down. The channel is great . Thanks

Jeff this was a very helpful video - thank you. QUESTION (and apologies if too vague to answer) - what do you determine 'rainfall in the forecast when considering putting seed into buckwheat and/or on top of thatch? Is it something like 1/4-1/2" of rain say over a 1 week time, or more than that? I live in central MN so I am experiencing much of the same weather (rain) patterns as your. Ultimately debating 'when' to broadcast my seeds... thanks

Great video jeff as usual, im in SW PA. Rain is really inconsistent even in the future forecast, how long can i wait to plant my brassica crop

Love all your videos. Just on question can you plant brassicas with peas, clover and alfalfa? If I broadcast radish 4 to 5 weeks early?

Please make a video on what to plant to keep wild hogs from destroying your food plot.

I watched two great bucks browse all the way around a 500-acre bean field last night and never touched a single bean plant. 🤷‍♂️

What about a hot Louisiana summer? What would you plant

I have a off subject question, for cleaning up clover plots with glyphosate , would you use a full rate or not, or don't you recommend this practice

If you do a new field all in Tillage radish and Austrian peas are you halving both amounts? Ie, instead of 100lbs of peas/acre, down to 50?

I live in northern Idaho. Planted 10 acres winter rye last September 2020. We have NOT had a rain since mid May and probably will not getting any rain until early/mid September (that's normal),last year we did NOT get rain until early October. It is weed free and fully mature. Should I mow it in September or leave it standing? Any ideas? thanks... Love you videos, but some things you do would not work here. Too dry!

Hey Jeff! Watching old videos, wondering what seed I can mix with my brassicas, clover and peas?

I planted too many seeds should I just leave it or thin? Also I did not put it in rows so I can't walk through without stepping on them if I have to thin.

How late can I plant brassica in northern Tennessee? I'm looking for some rain but it's not looking good and hasn't the past week or so... Thanks

Crimper or cultipacker? And why?

Jeff, you worked with my brother and me near Tomah last summer. We have expanded to about 5 acres of food plots this year. I got seed from Northwoods and picked up The Sweet Feast Brassica Blend and Green Forage Blend. This is the first year of planting for most of the land. Can I mix them and plant them together or am I better off keeping them both separate. Thanks, Jeff!

I'm down in North Louisiana and it's past August 1st is it too late to plant brassica for my land? I'm hunting on a small spot of family land that's about 20 or 22 acres. The land use to be farm land so I'm told by my uncle and mom that the soil is good for growing.

What time do you plant the Candy Crop ?

Great vids Jeff. Is there a difference between winter rye and fall rye ?

What is the best way to amend clay soil? Trying to do no till, but ground dried out and choked the buckwheat.

I planted beans spring and I’m thinking about putting rye right into the beans this fall what do you think ?

For a couple of small plots in hardwoods and planting brassicas would it be better after 3-4 weeks to drop some urea or some triple 19 fertilizer since the plots are new ?? thanks

Hey Jeff. Northwoods Whitetails says to add forage radish to the fall forage blend that contains wheat, rye and oats. Do they mean to mix it in or plant on different sides of the plot? Thanks in advance. Have learned so much from your videos and book.

Hi Jeff, Thanks for videos. I have a question no one has been able to give me a answer to. I have gotten a piece of property to hunt and most of it is covered with waist high wild sweet peas. Deer love to bed in it in the summer but do they eat it or is it a waste to have on the property? Thank for everything

What if you spray glyphosate, wait for the plant to die, seed in, then shred? Would that work?

Hey Jeff, in western NY when do you think is the latest brassicas can be planted? Not much for rain in the forecast over the next two weeks in my location. Thank you!

Hi Jeff, great info!... I have a property in Missouri and I am dealing with a 9-acre food plot. I was thinking of splitting it into thirds. 1/3-White clover to hold the hilly side of the plot for erosion purposes, 1/3 Winter Wheat(75%) & Cereal Ry(25%), and 1/3-Radish only. Is it okay to mix Winter Wheat and Cereal Ry? What is your opinion on mixing winter wheat with radishes? I know you said no Ry with radishes. Thanks

In regards too johns was blend when walking what setting would you say

One of my food plots is half turnips and half sugar beets, planted 1 week ago. The turnips have sprouted and I know it takes sugar beets a little longer to sprout but being as they are harder to grow if they don't sprout, what would you recommend replacing them with? (It's my first time trying sugar beets so I know there's a chance they fail.)

Newbie question - when you say you add tillage radish to your brassica blend, what is the name of the radish or brand that you use?

How do you feel about adding radish with oats?

Rye will obviously grow in sand. But how do you get brassica to grow in sandier plots ?

Hello Jeff, what is the minimum overall width of a plot that you can rotate you think? My current plot is only about 25’ wide but 350’ long.

hey jeff im down here in NC i have 4 food plots location on 400 acres.. bottom is 2.5 acres, powerline is 0.4 acre , top field 0.3 acres. and across creek is 0.25 acres(first year planting it threw out buckwheat 2 weeks ago going to go check on it today). just recently started watching but ive never tried brassicas. my ? is last year (before i knew ) i planted 300ibs winterwheat, white clover, oats, alfalfa, and buckwheat in bottom and topfield. other 2 fields had everything but the alfalfa. do i need to be rotating to something different every year ? or can i just use buckwheat in the summer and in the fall plant winter wheat and rye because i think the clover is already established. and after last year i dont think im going to alfalfa again bc its gets pretty expensive. all plots are pretty diverse in hardwoods & pines

Need help! Has anyone planted in to a forestry mulched area? Most the trees were only 4 or 5 years old so there is not a lot of mulch, however my Atv disc just can't cut through what is there and remaining roots and I am afraid seed to soil contact isn't going to happen. Highly considering doing all brassicas this first year since the seeds are so small hoping they will work in the cracks. What are you thoughts? Jeff, any thoughts?

I bought my first hunting property this year and I'm trying to decide if I can still get a food plot in this year. I have access to sweat equity only at present and a limited amount of time this year due to work. Native green vegetation is waist to chest high and super thick. Is it worth it? Or should I just wait till spring and start following your no till spray process?

what is that bag seed spreader that you use?

We have a little rain coming in this weekend. Would you think it’s to early to plant brassicas in southern, IL?

Why did you decide to keep some of your plots dead until this planting. Why not use the buckwheat rotation like you teach? Is there a specific reason for some of your plots this season?

Hi Jeff. When you say "light oats", how many lbs/acre are you putting down?

Is it okay to mix rye and wheat or should they be planted separate

Hey Jeff when mixing brassica and clover together what setting would you utilize on the earthway

Jeff, I’ve really gone head first into your no till buckwheat and then brassica planting. I thought you mentioned to add 50# Winter Rye/acre around Labor Day. Does that still hold true and the warning in this video is just about not mixing during the brassica planting?

I have a problem with birds eating my seed any advice on this

So can you brassica then layer rye Labor Day. Or are you just saying don’t plant at the rye and brassica at the same time

Hey Jeff, do you ever run winter rye along side clover/chic mix? You mention how small plot brassica would be eaten down quick. So curious if I should go with winter rye as it would only be about a 3rd of an acre addition to my plot.

hey Jeff, forecast for the next 10 days doesn't look promising for rain in white cloud, MI. how late can I wait to plant Brassicas?

11 minutes of knowledge....ahhh

How much do you charge a client?

Would you recommend spraying plot start after crushing buckwheat & spraying roundup on the same day? When would you recommend spraying plot boost on brassica?

How do we properly contact you?

Is tryprod ryegrass good? Also will u do videos on kill plots in the woods

i’ve learned about everything i know from WHS. Killed my first buck when i did what he said to

Excellent information..., but talk too much.
