I like Powerplant. I planted it two years ago and it grows THICK. Once it started growing, I never checked on it or step foot in the food plot and saw some of the biggest buck I have seen walk out of that plot during season. What I would recommend is to plant your food plot in powerplant and then when it starts to die, disk up 1/2 of the field and leave the other. When this stuff dies, it still is a thick mess. I will be planting powerplant again this year!
So, how long did the deer stay and eat in it? I would be planting in Ny and am wondering if the deer will keep eating it until mid december? I think Im going to do half of the field powerplant and half of something else... How well does this stuff grow without to much fertilizer or lime??
Thanks
