wtnhunt Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Re: food plots... Depends on what you are planting as to when you will put it out. Good luck with the biologic, not a fan of their seed at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Re: food plots... Biologic seeds have proven not to be food that these deer care for in this area, at least not the stuff I have tried like full draw. Biologics clover supreme is the only biologic product I have used that in my honest opinion was worth the time to fool with. Full draw is an annual that should be planted late summer. Pea patch plus is an annual that can be planted late spring on into the summer. Not really familiar with hotspot. Personally my first choice in plot seeds is pennington. Faster germination, better quality seed, and stuff the deer will actually eat. I have had great results with their seeds in a number of different blends. After that would have to be our own RT forum member Martin Hamann's hamann farms seed blends. Martin produces some great quality seed blends, and my clover/trefoil plot has done extremely well, and the deer and turkeys love the stuff. His seed germinates fast and does well. Check out hamannfarms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETMGROW Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Re: food plots... If you already have the seed, you might take time to read the instructions on the bag, Or, you can call the company for recommended planting dates in your planting zone.

kidd Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Re: food plots... i am a fan of the clover plus, and bio-mass i have not tried hot spot but remember that is more for quick germination and does not last long also like buck forage oats but most important is to have your soil sampled!!!!! nate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
