I am getting ready for spring food plots, leaning towards white ball clover per the advice of a cousin that manages several food plots on their land. reading online, it seems it will take the clover a year to really get established, and it is generally recommended to plant another crop along with the clover to start feeding the deer this spring/summer.
i am looking at planting three plots, approx. 1 acre, and two 1/2 acre spots.
my cousin said to steer away from beans and peas since the deer eat the sprouts so fast a small plot will not give any long term feeding through the season.
I was thinking about clover, and it part of the plot maybe turnips.
What would be a good crop for middle Georgia? i am in the creek bottoms, soil tends to stay wet or damp, hardly ever dry save for the full blown summer months.
the only equipment i have is a bottom plow, disc harrow, fence drag and brush hog.
what would you folks plant?? looking to feed the deer through the summer, and I'll plant something else come fall.
