Default RE: FOOD PLOT!!

All the biologic products have some merit. The mixes are of the right %blends and the seeds are generally good quality. I've been happy with the Biologic products I've tried. However, I don't know about the specific blends you mentioned.

As far as expense - lets just say the CHEAPEST part of most any plot is the seed. Even if you go out and spend Top Dollar on a High Profile Premium Blend - for the most part - we are talking about $25.00 - $50.00 per acre for the seed. Your gas, fertilizer and probably lime, your herbicide spray not to mention your time - will cost you more than the seed - then you still have pay to maintain the plot.

For advice - I tell people to go with a good quality seed - whether its a local seed from the co-op or from Imperial Whitetail, Biologic, etc -and read and follow the planting directions. Make sure you prepare the plot as told prior to seeding and know your soil requirements.
