RE: I need some help and advice
Thanks for the replys and advice. It has been preplexing trying to decide what to plant and how to plant it.
I had been wondering about mixing winter wheat and rye grass and winter peasin with the oats and greens.
Would you mix it all together or would you plant the different seed in different areas?
Would you use annual rye grass?
The folks down here that I have spoke with haven't had much results with the Austrailian<sp> snow peas. What kind of peas would you plant?
I am wanting to plant clover as well, would white clover be best choice or should I mix in other varities?
I have been wondering if you mix the clover seed with the rest of the seedas you seed it or do you plant it seperate in a seperate area so that it doesn't get shaded out next spring by what may come back?
Are there different fertilizer requirements for the different kinds of seed suggested?
Would you fertilize at the time of seeding or after it starts to sprout?
Timber Cruiser I am not sure of the type of pine stumps, they were planted as pine plantation in the 1980's, the good news is they aren't field\bull pines. They are two years old right now and a good number of them I am able to tip up out of the ground with the front-end loader on my tractor.
I am using my tractor a 42hp Kubota with a front-end loader and a 5 foot tiller on the back to prepare the ground. I have access to a PTO driven broad-caster to scatter the seed and lime and such.
I have spent 3 months of working weekends getting the food plot ready. I don't want to waste all that work by not doing something right in the planting of it.
I intend to start planting and such this next weekend, am I starting to soon or to late for a fall food plot?
It is still dry down here and I am worried about planting to soon and the heatkilling it, I am also worried about waiting any longer and the food plot not having time to be a good fall food plot.
Thanks
Mr-Pirk
