How is everyone's food plots doing with this weird summer weather pattern ?
I dont have my own property or plots yet so I live vicariously through the forum till that day arrives.
3 months and counting till opening day

Ran out of time to do my usual summer plots. Debating planting my fall early and mixing in some soybeans

I got my plots planted good and thick this year

Looks like a nice plot

Does not appear they like it too well?? Lol plots get mowed before they ever get that thick

My guess is it's making them lazy and they're just laying around a lot

I would think they would be hungry lol

They’re probably at the Tom Thumb getting a bag of Doritos and some brownies!

Iron Clay Peas planted about 3 weeks ago looking great on my 20 acres.

And clover has been phenomenal this year on the hunting lease. Mowed it once and sprayed with clethodim once this summer.

I planted iron clay peas and sun hemp, which are doing good but plenty of weeds. Haven't thought about spraying them. I used a spreader to plant them but I believe I will try a grain drill next time.

Has anyone ever added sun hemp in with your fall plots?

I thought about adding sun hemp but after hearing the horror stories of the massive 8-9 foot tall stalks I’m not sure I want to go that route. Looking forward to seeing how yours do.
I hear they are good for soil improvement.
Hope they do well!

I was thinking of adding some to my fall plots to see if it makes the deer feel safer and come out in them earlier.

good luck with your sunn hemp. I found it not worth the trouble. Minimal browsing and the stalks choked up my disc so bad I spent hours cutting the pans free. I'll never plant it again.

No on the sun hemp. Sorghum works well as does brown top millet and late season corn.

Appears to be a hen and possibly this years hatchlings.

Good looking plot.

Thanks for sharing guys. Looking forward to the day I can share my own pics and advice.

This field seems to be more hemp that peas. The deer are definitely eating the peas.
