Then broadcast the brassica mix.<br /><br />This has been a strange year. The rains kept coming and the grass never stopped growing. The seed should take right off because I should have very good soil moisture.<br /><br />I need to fence off the plot from the rest of the pasture but that should not stop the deer. They go right over the fence into the orchard over MARK as if it were not there.<br /><br />I should be able to sit in the pole barn and watch. I do have to be very careful about my background. I have some houses at 135 degrees (800 yards out) and 215 degrees (400 yards out) by the compass from the pole barn door. Sitting in the orchard is an option but that puts me west of the food plot and upwind. <br /><br />This would be a fine time to use a cross bow.<br /><br />Decisions, decisions, decisions.<br />Eaton Rapids Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09102166969915526172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970975545475697571.post-70316108685755617322013-08-07T13:38:05.040-04:002013-08-07T13:38:05.040-04:00When are you going to plant that?

There's nothing like harvesting venison over your food plot.Pawpawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14959820068377494313noreply@blogger.com
