Food Plot Advice please...
I am shooting to put my fall plots in this weekend, but looking for some advice/suggestions.....
If you have 2 plots that aren't 150 yards apart from each other. One is 1.3 acres in size and the other is 2.5 acres in size.
I have Austrian Winter Peas, NWTF clover mix, and turnips and Wheat/oats.
I am in WV and I have the average farm equipment to plant, no drills or anything like that. Also I will need to do my liming off of ATV.
So, my question to you guys is: Would you plant the Peas in their own plot meaning either in the whole 1.3 acre plot, or even half of the 2.5 acre plot, then plant the clover, turnips and Wheat/oats in the remaining area?
Or would you strip it, making sure to have all options in each food plot?
Or heck just seed your peas, then come back over and seed in your clover, turnips and Oats right on top of the peas. Then you have a salad bar in every foot....
My only concern with all in one would be that the plants will choke each other out.
Please put your two cents in...........
1.3 acre is a horseshoe shape and more shaded, though still open
2.5 acre is more like a tear drop or even rectangle shape and open field.
Thanks
