Your pH levels on wooded soils are spot on. Love using Grains, Clovers and Rapeseed. Were going with DeerGro to get a quicker Calcium reaction with the soil. Great video for wood plotting!
Thank you appreciate that. Grains are definitely a work horse in many many ways.
Thanks for a great thought-provoking video!
BACK STORY: I've got a small transitional area (1/8-1/4 acre) in Southwest Missouri within my 20 acres of wooded land. I recently cleared the leaves prior to heavy rain. BUT, like you said, there's not a lot of weeds popping up b/c it's in the woods. Nevertheless, I took a soil test & sprayed the emerging weeds/grass. My plan is to cut some trees & open up the area a little more and spray it again. THEN lime the heck out of it!
QUESTION: I'm wondering which would make a better cover- crop here in Southwest Missouri: buckwheat OR Ladino clover? Once I'm done with the PREP - My current plan is to:
1) Plant either clover OR buckwheat during the 1st week of June.
2)Then, during the last week in July, broadcast glyphosate-ready soybeans & fertilizer into the standing cover-crop.
3) Finally, (after spreading the soybean) my plan is to then mow the standing "cover-crop" and spray it with glyphosate. That should provide continued cover plus a quicker breakdown of the covercrop. Im thinking this will also promote all soil nutrients going to the soybeans. I would appreciate your thoughts.
I like all that except for the soy beans. Soy beans in that small of an area won’t last long. For a food plot that small you need something that’s going to withstand browse pressure.
I would do maybe wheat oats and rye
Love the vids I live in the northeast so it’s still snowy deer season just ended yesterday and I’m ready to get back out there and get back to work
Awesome what state? I’m in Maryland no snow here thankfully lol.
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors northeast Pennsylvania
Lack of sun was my biggest issue. No snow here in MO yet, but they are still hitting it hard with no ag around. Planning on cutting trees this winter to prep it for next year.
I currently have Winter Wheat, Oats and Winter Rye. Would you recommend disking it back in or keeping it and seeding with clover for the spring and summer?
Great information once again and love the step by step processes and explanations.
That’s great I hate snow lol. Sun is the biggest issue some folks forget about. Sun is so essential for growth. Thank for the comment 🙋♂️
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors I currently have Winter Wheat, Oats and Winter Rye. Would you recommend disking it back in or keeping it and seeding with clover for the spring and summer?
@@rrfeld1554 me personally I would disc it back in and I would plant buck wheat or whatever else I’m planting. You could just frost seed your plot would be better. Let that go and once clover gets established and right before wheat and rye goes to seed head just mow it that will kill the wheat and rye
First of all I want to say I appreciate all the information out there. I enjoy the land management videos a lot. 2nd, Why is Chris always working so hard , while you talk to the camera?
Oh boy here we go lol.
Good observation, Joey! LOL
@@citysticker-chris I think you should start a union Chris. Demanding equal camera time and Dave doing his share of the work.
@@MySliceOfHeavenoutdoors Good idea, but im more action than talk... He is a yapper...Hehehe
@@citysticker-chris lol
Have you ever tried this in Arizona pine forest. Elevation is 7000 feet.
No
so get a soil sample first got it lol It would suck to do all that work to get a sample lol
This is so perfect
Thanks
Love the video and info. I just cleared a field doing the same thing. Would it be best to burn leaves or rake. I sprayed stomp killer on my tree stomps is that ok. I also bought switchgrass to put around the whole field, imma take your advice and I'm going to use clovers to plant for summer time and I do have a groundhog disc
Have a small tract of land along the Mississippi which Floods Every year,my problem with a plot is the time of the rise and fall of the river. With that being said any suggestions for a small plot in which we cant access the land until May,June time of the year which is well past the Spring time plot planting time?
Awesome Videos Dave!! Always full of knowledge. What are your thoughts about me working my property earlier than March to start clearing out trees, hinge cut a path to the food plot, and tilling in Lime for the food plot? Will me (so called working earlier) scare off the deer that I have on my property and risking them not coming back?
Not at all. I wouldn’t worry about it. I work on my
Properties all year long. I typically stop maybe 3-4 weeks before opening day
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors thats sounds great. Thanks man! Looks like I have my weekends planned
I have 200 acres I hunt on a mountain side with no ag fileds is it worth planting food plots
I have a small 3/4 acre food plot that I started about 2 years ago in the woods. I had a lot of grasses come up this spring. I mowed it down and my clover is coming through but sporadic with some bare spots. Would you disc it all under or over seed and fertilize. My ph is still around 7.
What soil testing service do you use?
Usually domains. But I also use way points or whitetail institute
Love your videos. Do the properties you hunt have both deer and hogs? I hunt a place in Texas that has both. Is there a way to attract more deer with out the hogs tearing up all the hard work making these food plots ?
The properties I hunt do not have hogs. I’ve hunted in north Florida and they were overrun with hogs and would rip up food plots all the time. The best and only method to the trap and shoot them. That’s it
What's a good food plot to attract both whitetails and turkeys? Also what brands do you recommend? My plan is to hunt spring gobbler and for early season archery and rifle in November. I have a 13.5 acre property in south central KY. Should I do 2 smaller food plots or 1 larger sized 1?
Sunflowers with no round up would be great for turkeys, and also a good blocking plant to put around the edges. I'd leave it unsprayed to make sure it stays thick, and turkeys will pick out the sunflower seeds with no problem.
Great info! I’m a food plot beginner and have about 1/3 of an acre cleared for a clover/chicory plot and saved some space for switchgrass on the sides for screening. Just got my soil test back at a PH of 4.6! I want to get aggressive with getting this up. I bought fast acting lime, but we currently have a foot of snow on the ground here in Pa. Should I wait until it melts to spread? Also should I delay my spring plantings until my PH levels are up? Thank you for all you do!
Thanks. Fast acting lime is most likely the same as any other lime. Lime is lime for the most part. I wouldn’t delay planting. Having something green in the soil for as many days out of the year is the best way to go. If it’s a foot of snow I would personally wait. It could freeze on top then rain and you’ll get run off. When it starts to melt down here soon then I would spread.
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors Sounds great! Thank you
What do you plant in arkansas in the woods?
Clovers, wheat, oats, rye.
I just came across this video when going through a bunch of your others. I do have a question. We just had a bunch of cedar and elm trees mulched down that were on an easement and figured it would be a good spot to put a food plot since the majority of work has been done. But they left behind several tons of mulch, any tips on where to start? Do I just try to rake it all out (approximately 1/2 acre), burn it, or will it decompose and allow me to plant over the top? Thanks for any tips I enjoy your content.
Thanks lot. What I would do is maybe get a drag and hook to a atv and drag it out some to mix it up with soil. Then disc it under and eventually it will decompose overtime. Dragging it and seeding it will
Probably work just make sure you have soil
Exposed so you get soil to seed contact.
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors awesome I really appreciate the input! I will give that a go this weekend when I go out to clear shooting lanes.
Do you have an annual clover variety that you recommend? Looking for something that establishes somewhat quickly.
Check out plow down clover from fridige forage. Used it a couple years ago was awesome good blend
Went looking for videos on Throw 'N' Grow to make a little food plot on the little patch of land I got and ended up finding this video instead. It being so late in the year is it possible still make the food plot I want? For context I'm in Louisiana and the temps are dropping to the forties and fifties
You can always prep the area as far as removing trees and such. Maybe do a soil sample and add lime if needed best to do that asap.
I would wait until next year to plant anything.
Im new to food plots. Im going to try 1 this year. Where do you find your seeds? Online or local?
Where I live I can’t buy them local. I get specialty seeds from domain outdoors on line. If I’m buying winter wheat and oats I buy them from a place in pa
Hi. I was wandering if you inoculate your seeds? It seems like a pain in the ass to do the inoculation part. Is it necessary to do?
Thanks
I do not. I don’t think it’s necessary at all. I’ve done it both ways and never saw a difference
Great thanks!
i live in indiana i have 150lbs of oats left over do you think itd be ideal to plant them this early spring why im planting clover again? time late summer comes ill be turning dirt planting winter peas again.
You can plant them with the clover sure deer probably won’t eat the oats at that time of year but will help establish the clover.
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors thanks very much appreciated not to worried if there gonna eat em just looking to keep the soil germinated for the fall. cant find any resource about planting oats in the spring. deer tend stay in the beans and corn travel through my plots to bigger fields . just wanting rich soil for peas
@@indeerhunterin you probably won’t find much on that because it’s just not typically something that’s planted in the spring for deer. Used for cover crop many times but you will be good with it
I live in north Texas, have 12 acres but my ph is 8.4. I have no idea what to do or plant with a ph that high? Any advice?
There’s all kinds of products out there to lower ph but the best thing to use is sulfur. Adding sulfur will lower it pretty fast. As far as how much to add I’m not 100 percent sure on that. But I’m sure your local ag extension office will be able to tell you. I know it’s not a lot. A little goes a long way. I’ve never had a high ph issue myself. But sulfur is best used
Just use manure. Let some goats graze it for a while. Spread some wood ash on it in tge winter time. Dont waste money on unnecessary fertilizer.
Hi I’m new to your channel and I was wondering I’m trying to grow a food plot in the woods this year with imperial no plow. And was wondering if I plant it in the fall what can I spray in the spring to kill the weeds and grass without harming the imperial that I’ll plant this fall. Thankd
You can spray it with regular glyphosate.
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors ok thank you so much! Should I spray it or get soil sample first
Either one doesn’t matter.
@@Whitetailobsessionoutdoors alright! Thank you for the info! What brand of glysophate would you recommend? I’m new to spraying weed killers
I just use a generic one from tractor supply can’t think of the name but it’s fairly priced it’s the only one they sell. 2.5 gallon jug
Buckwheat a annual?
Yes it is
Chris is scaring me with that chainsaw...... better watch some videos. Looks like he is leaving a Dutchman
Lol he’s blind.
Look at me go..........
Yeah look at the 🤡 go
