I was thinking of fertilizing that area early summer to see if I can get the goldenrod to come up taller to create better bedding cover. Anybody tried this and if so what were your...

    New Clover Varieties results (Renovation White Clover)

    A few years ago I asked if anyone on here had any experience with two new clovers that welter seed had made available for the first time. The two in question were Legacy and Renovation white clover. I ended up doing a mix of Renovation and Jumbo II ladino with a small amount of Chicory mixed in...

    Getting out of stand at dark with deer present.

    Ran into this problem this past week. Had a couple of does with fawns eating in my clover plot at dusk and they would not leave. I tried to wait them out but finally had to climb down and alert the deer to my location, not good. If I was hunting with a partner I would have had them drive the...

    Only see young deer in plots

    I have some land in the Upper Penninsula of Michigan that I have a couple foodplots planted on. Over the years I have always hunted where I could overlook the foodplot. I have killed deer in these foodplots but never any mature bucks. I have seen buck rubs on good sized trees that indicate more...

    Kura in a mix?

    I have never messed around with Kura Clover. I hear it is slow to establish and that makes me wonder if it would be a poor choice in a mix with other legumes like Kopu II and Falcata alfalfa? Any ideas here fellas.

Its been many years since I used any other white clover than Kopu II just because I love how thick and vigourous it grows. I would like to mix my Kopu...
