hoosierhunter Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 All I can say is wow! I planted some evolved harvest mega plots 3 weeks ago and they have went bananas. Best looking plots I've had for a 1st year deal. They are canopied and about 12-18 inches tall already. How is everyone's stuff looking?

whitetailfreak55 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Mines alright I got the throw and grow with the brassicas. I hunt public land with no way to get a four Wheeler in there with a disk on it. But the bugs tore it up pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Pics? Summer plantings look great, dunno how with as dry as it has been. No real recent pics, but posted progress here http://www.realtree.com/forums/land-wildlife-management/109160-spring-summer-plot-update-pics.html a while back. Disced some ground for fall plantings this past weekend and will finish up getting those plots ready to plant hopefully this coming weekend. Going with a fall clover planting.

speedjunkiejp Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 I did some throw and go. Hoping to get some results. Trying to decide another mix for my other plot. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotashRLS Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Between us and some buddies, we did our usual array of Whitetail Institute Winter Greens, No-Plow and Pure Attraction. We also did some soybeans early and now the leaves are pretty much chewed right off. They won't even have to turn yellow. I overseeded it with a clover blend just last week so the rain will sow the seeds. This should take yet this fall and be nice next spring. It will then regenerate the nitrogen in the soil naturally because clover makes its own nitrogen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) Our MO plots were planted on the 23rd. First rain was the 26th & second was last Friday after I left. With the 3rd rain forecasted for this Friday, I hope they are lush when I get back there. Not having a tractor yet up there, we contracted it out. Some plots were planted with Biologic Maximum adding turnips to the mix and some were planted with Biologic Outfitter's Blend. We won't plant our MS plots until somewhere around Sept. 22nd this year. Any earlier and they'll burn up down here. Even then we'll only plant about 1/2 of them and the rest around mid Oct. so we don't risk loosing all of them.

VABoy"88 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 The first plots of the year came in great, but with the heat we had they quickly fell to wilt and the insects took the rest. After having 13 inches of rain in a three storm period I have just been able get back in there and replant. Hopefully within a couple weeks that will be coming in good.
