As for as food plots, down your way, try Sunn Hemp as a summer plot. We tried this stuff fior the first timem this year where I hunt in SE Alabama. It grew great. And deer liked it. It grew fast enough to stay up with the browsing. For fall we use a mix of wheat, rye, oats and Crimson clover. Check with your local ag agent for advice.pH correction is a must for good results.
