RE: easiest food plot to plant in spring?
Most of Whitetail institutes stuff says to get it in the ground before April 1! I just put Whitetails Imperial Clover, Chicory, and Alfa rack plus in the ground today. If your soil is mid 6's to 7 1/2 you are good to go. The seeds are pre-inocculated to help them start. If you have access to a lawn tractor and a fence drag you can prep the ground good enough for what I mentioned.
I blew up my water pump on my truck hauling a caterpillar skid steer and was unable to get it there to finish up my tilling. I borrowed my neighbors fence drag, hauled my aerator, and lawn tractor over there and finished it up. I drug the fence around about 15 times over my seed bed and it was almost perfect. Then rolled it with aerator after I seeded to compact the seeds.
I did it in the drizzle today so the rain helped to water them down after seeding.
Cant wait!!!!!!!!
