huntermq32 Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 I planted lab lab in mid april and it only grew 22 inches high. Is this normal. And I also don't see any peas on them. Will the produce some later. I could not spray this plot but had good ph to start with so I don't know if that ist he cause of all this.

VTbowman Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Re: lab lab I might be reaching here but sounds like the deer are keeping it mowed down and pea pod-less. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] that's what I'd be thinking also. Did you put up a seclusion cage? They can be very useful in determining deer usage. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ousoonerfan22 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: lab lab The lablab grows extremely well around here and will have beans if the deer don't graze on it too much. I transplanted some dirt out of the disced lablab food plot from last year to use around the trees I was watering and now have lablab growing around the trees.

LETMGROW Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: lab lab The cage is probably the answer. You can't be there every minute to watch your plots. I would guess the Lab Lab never had a fighting chance. You have learned two things. # 1 Your deer like Lab Lab # 2 Plant a lot more next time.

wtnhunt Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: lab lab Yep, have to agree with the others here. Have either used the lablab plus or mixed in some sorgum with my peas and beans here, helps give the peas and beans a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntermq32 Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: lab lab Thanks for the feed back guys. I don't have a cage up but there is 80 ac of corn on one side and 2 ac of monster mix on thother. The lab lab is 1ac L shaped. I know that the deer are realy hitting the monster mix hard but the bugs have been a problem with the lab lab. So do you think the lab lab isn't going to produce any peas. Oh I almost forgot I shot an 11 ponter of this plot last evening. He is not huge 130 to 140 but he was narley looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETMGROW Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: lab lab Dear sir, If you shot an eleven pointer on this Lab-Lab plot I don't see why you are concerned about how tall it is! Obviously it worked! Congrats!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I log in there is supposed to be a spot to click on that says upload pics but it is not there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
