Fantail Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 [media=] [/media]Clover plot grew back a bit from last year, i've expanded it about 25% to the right & back of the cam. Also tilled up about a yard in from the outside into it to try and get rid of some rye. Put down more lime & 8.8.8. Tilled that in and planted more clover mix.

landtracdeerhunter Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Looks good and the deer are sure chowing down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave6x6 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Fantail, Great videos.. The plot looks super also. I particularly like how you worked it in and out between the trees. That tends to make the deer much more comfortable when they come to feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabin Fever Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 The clover looks nice and lush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First-light Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) Fantail, How often do you mow it? Edited May 22, 2012 by First-light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 Appriciate the feedback. I'm prepaired to mow it but never had to 'yet'. I think, the combination of the size of the plot, amount of light & browse has helped to manage it. Time will tell the clover plot is bracketed by two other plots about 40 yards away (tecomate deer peas plus / chicory). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First-light Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Thanks, I put in a clover plot this year that will get full sun. Your plot looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Nice job...I got a section of alfalfa/clover in...and it's raining nicely...But it is also calling for rain all week ...tad concerned...I have two new wood land plots I have to trim trees around...they've come in great but I missed judge the canopy...so will have much more fire wood soon...and a couple of bedding areas...which is OK because I've killed 4 emerald ash borers....so the ash should go any ways....
