This is kind of a follow uo to the I can' t win post. When they do the burn on our cutover we will be left with a few patches of cedar trees spread out through the are that I hunt. What I' m looking for is some type of grass/weed that will offer cover to create a travel corridor and a bedding area between the pines that border us to the tract of hardwoods that we have. The criteria is:
#1- The seed must be cheap. (I' m looking at 10 to 15 acres)
#2- The seeds must germinate and get tall very quick on poor to average soil. (Planting date will be late September)
#3- It doesn' t have to be something deer will want to eat.

This might not even be a feasible idea but I thought it could be worth a try to restore the bedding area that will be lost in the burn. Right now the main bedding areas are some type of grass about 4 feet tall but the herbicide should kill all of it. Natural regrowth probably won' t start until spring. If anyone has some suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.
