With all the drama in the world today.This is my GOOD Place... Thanks for all the positive things to think about, and do.

In my 8 years of planting food plots, I'm at a ratio of 50% fail -vs-50% success. Your videos were key to my successes!

We have been planting gardens for many years which sometimes became a food plot for deer. One of the best tips I got from this channels was what deer don't like for cover. It really has helped keep deer out of the garden. And in their own food plot. Having fruit trees and honey bees the clover has did great. Even with the drought it stayed green and the grass was crunchy brown. The trees with clover needed less water. Clover don't grow as tall as grass for less mowing.

Awesome video Jeff, thanks for sharing!

I love food plot season ! Thank you so much for all your help ☘🦌

these video should be in your food plot class great video helps a lot

Great as usual, thanks Jeff always learning

Great information, I am taking notes.

One of my Favourite Videos!!!

Lol thanks Jeff you answered my question I asked you the last two videos About the rye to clover

Good information as always Jeff! That no till buckwheat has definitely led to success while I try and parallel your plantings and keep tweaking things year after year

Hi Jeff, quick question for you. I have used the buckwheat no-till method the last couple years with great success. However I have some areas of really poor soil that even the buckwheat has a hard time establishing. I ordered some soil Builder blend and crimson clover from Northwoods whitetails. In your opinion if I plant this in mid-may do you see any issues seeding into the stand with either a Brassica or green blend? My biggest concern is not being able to crush it over with a cultipacker and or if glyphosate will kill off the crimson clover in early August.

A buddy just obtained his first property. He's asked my assistance in planting two, one-acre, plots. From what we can determine, these have never been planted in the past 3 years. There's a tiny bit of unhealthy red clover, otherwise it's weeds and Canadian thistle. He (nor I) have any equipment other than two gallon hand sprayers. Wifey has put her foot down on buying/renting anything additional for this year. He's okay with that and happy to hunt/monitor for a year. The plan is to 1. Broadcast 50/50 winter rye and winter wheat. Same day spray glyphosate+Imazamax which shouldn't kill the clover. The weeds will be left wilted/standing rather than rolling. For a one season, punting situation, will this be acceptable and what changes might you suggest. Thanks.

Hey Jeff, In your best food plot mix 2020 video you plant 200 lbs of winter rye overtop of the tilled radish around labor day. This contradicts your 2020 video for starting a food plot like i am this year. Asking for some help. I will be starting the buckwheat method next year.

Goodness this is a lot of information! Much appreciated, but I need a more simple solution and approach.

I started food plotting in 1991

Jeff, I am in the piedmont NC area, and the deer just don't seem to hit the turnips. I'm the only one who eats them! Nothing better than a peeled raw turnip out of the field!! Typical frost late November. What's a better option not using turnips for deer? Winter peas on a heavy population setting, no till seem to work best for late season as a trial run this year. Buckwheat burn down before fall plant. Any advice for us southern guys? Hardly ever any snow, but Nov frost burns the clover back mid November.

can i leave the buckwheat grow for 10 weeks. i could plant in early april and leave it until september

Hey Jeff quick question, would it be necessary to plant buckwheat the following spring/summer to build the soil after I previously planted half Winter rye and half brassica in the fall? or would it be good enough to just cut and kill the rye when it is around 12 inches tall and not planting any buckwheat and continue the rotation of rye and brassica.

To help feed deer in Northern MN/WI, any pro/cons to keeping some hay bails around and breaking them up throughout the long winter months?

It took me a few tries to learn that clay, loam, and sand are different.

Can i mow a clover brassica mix as weed control.cant spray,adjacent wetland lots of amphibians.

Buckwheat is a plotter's best friend.

Winter peas with brassica. Thoughts?

I guess I'm a bit confused. I used the oat, pea, bean mix as recommended in past videos with great results. Watching this, it now seems as if beans are not a good choice now. Curious why the change since the beans planted in early August will do the same as late August in regards to no bean production. Also noticed at the 38 min mark, there are beans in that mix of oats and peas. So don't plant beans now?

Takeaway: Plant me early and often.

First

This is definitely one of the best food plot videos to date. Thank you.

I think hunters do more to help nature than any other group. Improving cover, soil, boosting food, preserving acreage for wildlife. Only hunters are willing to do all this work and expense because hunting is a natural part of nature and we restore nature as part of hunting.

Dang it kurt

You are 100% wrong about cereal grains into clover. Especially when using a layered approach. It works extremely well, especially with awnless wheat for 365 day food plot.
