Food Plot in the woods?

RE: Food Plot in the woods?
The lime and fertilizer is a question in my mind. The soil probably is acidic due to the oaks. I'm planning next weekend to plant the Secret Spot below my stand on a hillside. It has a spring seep so I know water will not be a problem. I'll plant on both sides of the seep.
It sounds like the No-Plow may be a better choice though if it's coming up better than the others.
For sure keeep us posted.

archer,
How much is a bag of no-plow for about an acre? I am looking at the same deal...I hunt thick woods in Northern New England and would like something to draw the deer in!!!
Thanks
Jim

I thought most of the Secret Spot was for late fall when the leaves fell off the trees. I have not used it but plan to this year.

May be better to plant right before the season.
