Last minute food plot gonna work??
Alright so heres the scoop. We are way behind this year and our property is an 1 1/2 hours away. We are hoping to either get down there in 3 weeks or labor day. We really want to do a food plot as the crops there are destroyed from the drought. But it hasnt even been brush hogged yet and we will be trying to do it all in one day. We had planted a plot there with turnips and brassicas 2 years ago but nothing last. This ground has never been cropped but it is really good soil. So can we brush hog and till and plant and get away with it?? obv we wont be getting top notch results as it needs lime,fert and roundup.
Or can we roundup after brush hogging and hour or two before tilling, or isnt this time enough to be any good??
Would it be beneficial to put fert down without lime?? We will be planting oats which weve had good success on our propertys around here.
Obv the plan would be to till and plant and pray, then next spring lime the heck out of it and then round up and work it up in advance to planiitng next year.
The total plots are about 1 1/2 acres. We have axcess to tractors,brush hogs,tills,and broadcasters but nothing to spray round up at this point.
