RE: What brand of brassicas is best??
I agree, the first year the deer didn't touch them until December. But, the second year and last year they were eating them by the middle of October. We've had our best luck by planting small 1/3-1/2 acre plots with Ladino Clover and Chicory in late March and then disking them and over seeding with a blend of Oats and Brassicas in late Aug. We have 7 plots like this with plans for 3 more, and they have proved very effective and fairly easy to maintain.
