Default RE: Tough Planting Season.

I' m still trying to take the Abundant rain in stride - You know, you kind of get in a habit of having plantings turn out like you expected, at least nearly so - then you have a rough year and crops fail, things don' t go as expected, etc. I can tell you this ---- If you are new to food plots - and have had alot of rain and cool temps this spring, this is nearly as bad as it gets. Try not to get discouraged, and learn fom your endeavors.

I imagine should you be a first year planter - and run into a year like this, you would think - WHY BOTHER!!!!!. Trust me - its not always this rough - and knowledge is the key to making the best of bad situations - in bad planting conditions - my advice is to think small, or think ahead (towards a fall planting). Lunchbucket always says - " don' t be in a hurry to fail" - and this is a case where that philosophy is right on.

Good luck to everyone planting this spring/summer - especially on the East Coast.
