How did you plant the bio-maxx, with a drill or broadcast
My plot was actually just broadcast (ATV spreader)and then cultipacked. It turned out even better than what I would have guessed.

Is Bio-Maxxa perennial or annual? Thinking maybe ill try it next year.
Perennial, like any corn or soybean, you'll be planting and reworkin' the ground eery Spring.

IL, how was the seedbed prepared. Did you cultipack it before broadcasting, or was it disked, bradcast, tehn cultipacked. Any advie on what you did or would do different would be appreciated, because that is one plot that will be planted this year. Also, what was your planting date. Thanks.

Biomaxx has annuals, not perennials. Completes it's life cycle in one growing season. Will not come back from the original stalk, but may have volunteers from seed that was produced and survived the winter conditions.

LargeLad, I know you sell plot specific soybean seed. Do you have any mix that competes with BioMaxx?

DanM, Sure do. Side by side our forage types are much taller, later in maturity, and produce twice as much forage per acre. Biomaxx uses varieties that are suited for ag production, but not bred for forage. We have bred and selected our varieties for this specific reason. Drought tolerance is also one of the keys that makes them work in food plots as well as the ability to perform in all soil types. You can also choose a corn hybrid that is more suited to your area and mix them yourself. Hope this helps.

large lad, check out the beans and they look great. Are they available online? I would love to make my own BioMaxx plot and not have to pay out the wazoo for the brand name.

Perennial, like any corn or soybean, you'll be planting and reworkin' the ground every Spring.

So its an annual.
Duh....how stupid of me! Think one thing and type another, sorry about that. Of course corn and soybeans is an annual! []
