dbHunterNY Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Thinking next year about planting some kind of perennial plot behind the house. i want to stay away from alfalfa, because there are large ag hay fields in the area. want something that's not provided. thinking a clover mixed with some other stuff type of food plot mix. it'd mostly get full sun, not sure of PH, and it's in a creek bottom. so what do you think is the best out there?

toddyboman Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 I don't think you can ever go wrong with clover...... I'm a big fan of whitetail institute stuff.....so check out there clover or if you ph or soil isn't to great look at their extreme stuff. It is made especially for poor soil.

MUDRUNNER Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 I had good luck with the Evolved Harvest clover and chicory mix. I got 5 good years out of it with little maintanance other than mowing a few times a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Favorite perennial here is hamann farms grower mix. Great mix with nothing else or you can add a little chickory in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even mowed it with a riding mower a few times when the tractor wouldn't start. I cut it down to about 6" 3 or so times a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
