Default RE: imperial no plow

Some on the board have used it - I have not. Its my understanding that its an annual plot, and that the ground really does need to be exposed to bare soil for it to do real well. Also the intructions recommend that you lime considerably, and fertilize up to 300 lbs/acre for good results, then it does well for 1 year.

I'll contend that if you lime and fertilize an overgrown field, or native brush, this much, and do not plant a thing - your results will be similar. If your going to do the work required to get a good plot, I'd go for a perrenial food plot that will last a few years.
