Default RE: Midwest Food Plot Question?

Absolutely. Most of us plant from southern MO to mid/north MO on Aug 15th. Problem is whacking out existing vegetation- especially this year. We always kill vegetation 3-4 weeks ahead and plant before a rain closest to Aug. 15th. Brassicas sweeten after the frosts- usually putting your plots correct by good bowhunting time- late Oct. We usually rotate and strip BCC (Brassicas, Chicories, Clovers)
(If your soil PH poor-- use pellitized lime, too late for ag lime) Good luck- you are late, but not necessarily out of the game.
