I'm in Mi. & it's ok to put corn, apples, beets & carrots in this state as well but were limited to a 5 gallon bucket & has to be spread out in a 5 ft area I think, I'm sure somebody on this site will correct me if I'm wrong.
Any way I would start putting the bait down about a week before I hunt & then bring a little more in as needed to keep the deer coming.
From the Michigan DNR web site:
[*]The volume of bait at any hunting site cannot exceed two gallons.
[*]The bait must be dispersed over a minimum of a 10-foot x 10-foot area.
Baiting may occur only from October 1 to January 1.
