Default RE: Why arent deer eating my food plot?

ORIGINAL: kdsberman
I have part Imperial Clover, part off brand, and part Biologic Clover Plus. Any suggestions?
Yeah, but what varieties of clover did you plant? When is each variety palatable, why, how often/when should it be cut to maintain attractiveness? Ask youselfif you met all the individual needs of each type/variety of seed in the bag with the cute deer picture on it. SoilPH, sunlight, rainfall, N-P-Knutrients, micronutrients? What did your soil test tell you to apply for lime and fertilizer? What other AG crops, native browse is availible, cover? Where are you? What are the deer feeding on in your area and why?

There is no magic seed or secrete blend available in a bag. Know what you actually plant, and what to expect. Then try to analyze the results and understand why.
