New to food plots

Super Snooper · Aug 7, 2017

Just curious to what everyone is having success with. I'll be planting approx 2 acres sometime in early September. Harris County clay for soil type. Going to be sampling for PH soon. I have one small plot that I'd like to have something up soon for bow season and then 2 larger plots that I want a good mix for that will get me through the winter. Any advice/info would be much appreciated.

For your bow plot, you could go in 2 weeks prior to bow opener and plant some iron clay peas. If you get some rain and they come up, you could have a good spot for the opener. Then when it's time to plant for the rest of the year (late September/early October) go in and plow your demolished pea patch up and plant some cereal grains and clover.

what Gut said........especially the part about waiting until late sept or early october to plant the fall plot

I wouldn't plant the fall plot until October.

Do soil test and get the necessary lime working now.
