It’s probably a bit early, but I figure this year I’ll start a thread about my food plots. I’ve been doing them for about 5 or 6 years now and they’ve become a big part of my summer plans. Seems to be a way that I’ve been able to expand my deer obsession to a little bit more of a year around project.
Yesterday I picked up most of my seeds for the year. I have one big plot that I use to produce tonnage. It’s about 2 acres. If I have the ability and time this year I’ll expand it some. This plot will be primarily brassicas and probably throw some oats in to allow the brassicas to get a good start. I have two other small plots totaling 1/2 - 3/4 of an acre. One will be clover as it always does real well and makes a good nursery plot. It’s small and secluded. The other Is a little bigger, a little more open and will be mostly chicory with some clover and maybe a little alfalfa mixed in.
I’ll try to keep this updated as I go. Maybe I’ll get some of the pictures of previous plots up as well. I don’t know if anyone here does much with them but figured maybe There would be interest.
