Try planting ordinary turnip greens , but fertize them to favor leaves instead of the turnip . Most of the non-clover attractant crops are just heavily fertilized greens of one kind or another . Turnip greens only taste good to deer after a frost sweetens them , so consider them a late season crop . For earlier deer seasons plant mixed clovers , this will give the deer a nutritious food over a longer period and the greens will attract them later on . You can also get several cuts of clover hay from the plot to offset costs .
