Planting brassicas was suggested to me on my other post. (I thought it may get answered better on a new post.) Thanks Griggster!

What type or types of "Brassicas" would be good to plant for my area? I live in central Illinois. I have never really heard of brassicas. Is a turnip in the same family???

Looking for something that would go from Fall into winter, if that is possible? I hunt a small ten acre timber. There is almost no food source around after fields are plowed.There is not a big deer population, but several due travel through and around during prerut and rut. After thats over the deer are scarce. Just looking for something to maybe keep them hanging around awhile longer.

Wanted to know What "KIND" I should get. How "MANY", what size of area needed. I can follow direction. But any planting tips would be great!

Any other suggestions in this area would greatly be appreciated!!

Thanks a Bunch !!!
