RE: Tecomate or Biologic?
BT,
You can get into some heated debates here, but there are two different camps regarding " seed-company" sales. 1: Buy the seed yourself and save the money, or 2: The seed companies often sell and distribute the varieties of seed that with their research, have shown to be the most palitable, forage resistant, cold-tolerant, and easiest to grow.
Many of Biologics, Imperial, Antler Kings, etc.., are designed specifically for deer, and the attraction or health of deer. There are many, many, varieties of seed, whether it be clovers, brassicas, whatever, and the major seed companies supposedly choose the best.
I guess it depends on who you believe!
Often, your talking a dollar a pound you save when looking at clovers or brassicas, of which you only need 5 to 10 #' s of seed per acre anyways.
Sometimes, in some situations, it may be worth the money you could potentially save, but most of the time it' s only a few dollar chance for the " deer-specific" variety.
