[QUOTE="Deer Slayer, post: 1238617, member: 8855"] Dennis- I plant my food plots in the Fall and I use clover and alfalfa. Occasionally I will plant a summer plot which doubles for deer and doves. I plant perrenials such as clover and alfalfa and some other blends then spend the rest of my time keeping the invasive grasses out of the fields with spray. I find this is less labor intensive and the deer and turkey benefit year round. I just have to spray and fertilize. In a nut shell I farm for wildlife. When food plots are done right it is amazing what happens in your second and third year. I do not have to constantly maintain feeders and keep them full. I am a steward of the land and my property shows it. I have helped people develop food plots when asked and the results are normally successful if the person will follow my instructions. In 2009 when I closed the Okla Wildlife Federation I donated some of our funds to ODWC for the Lexington WMA. I donated several hundred dollars of herbicide for the invasive grasses that were choking the clover plots. The previous year the Whitetail Institute of North America,upon my request, donated some Imperial Whitetail Clover to the department for food plots at Lexington. The plots did well but the grass was a problem so the organization bought herbicide and the manager started spraying. He had enough spray to manage the plots for 2 years or so. There is a sign at the WMA showing our donation as well as Johnston Seed Co which is out of Enid. One of Johnston Seed Co. salesman was on my Board of Directors. [/QUOTE]
