Lone Star Hunting Forum

We went to the lease yesterday and got our food plots planted.

We got everything plowed up and cleaned up.





We pulled a drag around to get most of the grass out of the soil.



We used a broadcast spreader to spread wheat, chicory, winter peas, and oats.



And finally we covered up the seads by pulling the drag back over the soil.

Now I just hope we can get some rain to get things going.

Looking good Mike. Our rainy season is just around corner.

Looking good, hope you get some rain. I won't be planting till the middle of September

I just have to get the electric fence up around it to keep the cows out and I will be done with the major projects for the year.

Off to a good start!! Maybe you can get some rain soon. Looks like you had the same problem we did with the dust!!

Good luck, hope the food plots work out for you.

We got lucky and it rained 0.52in at the lease today.

That is great. It doesn't take much to get the seeds going.

Looks great. Good luck

Went down yesterday and got my electric fence up around the foot plot. It did not take that long and I am real happy with it.









I got lucky and the power pole next to the fence had a electric fence box on it and the land owner said I could use it. That saved me from having to buy one. I hope putting the flagging tape all around it will help the deer see it and not get shocked and run away.

I see alot of green in there I hope your food plot takes and it works well for you.

looks good take more pics when it is all up
