Default Food Plot help...

I know this gets beat to death...but indulge me. I just had a feeder and a stand/ladder/all the accessories stolen....so I'm going to fight back the best way I know how. I'm PLANTIN!

I'm in NW NC.....and I can be ready in a jiffy. I have a 1.5 acre field that's in the woods.....a few pines in there....and it gets semi-limited sunlight. It has a good stand of grass (hay-like) in there almost all months of the year....but I want to do it, right.

So....I assume a soil test to begin? After that.....application of lime? Then....disc my soil and get ready....but when?

Also..how expensive is lime? What's the best way to spread it from an ATV? Will clover grow in this environment? What would you suggest?

I am READY. I can have all necessary items in a flash. If I need to wait until the Spring....I can do that, too.

Oh yeah....I hunt turkeys, here, too. I'd love to have something to benefit both....but the whitetails are my first love.
