Jack, SwampCat, Ncnat. Thanks for your input. This is gonna be a smaller plot so I think the advice of waiting until farmers plant to take pressure off and understanding the doe/fawn needs might be critical to making this work. thank you. If all else fails and they wipe it out i’ll probably just overseed with rye and brassicas. Last year I planted the plot in the spring with beans and buckwheat. Using the buckwheat to hide it. It actually worked out ok. Ok, meaning bean plants were maybe a foot tall still had leaf matter. But still turned it over and planted a turnip, radish, Winfred mix for the fall. I am not expecting bean pods or anything like that given the size. Just hoping that when the ag fields lose their draw for a couple of weeks I can capitalize and maybe get a crack at nice buck before rut. I’ll have a new plot that butts up to this one in the brassica mix listed above. If done right, those brassicas should begin to smell right around the time the ag bean fields yellow. In my area, that’s when they start to hit my brassicas. I’m gonna hope for deer to smell the brassicas and stumble into the beans if they haven’t already.
