I'm seeing a lot comments regarding buck to doe ratio but if I read the OP correctly, he is asking about carrying capacity (deer density) of his land. Buck to doe ratio and deer density are two different conversations. If we are talking deer density (carrying capacity), there really isn't a one...

When you say "rye," you're referring to cereal rye, not ryegrass, correct?

Your comments on ease of use and faster absorption is why I have chosen to go with a liquid. As I mentioned, I'm creating a small (<3000sq ft) food plot in a very secluded area on my property. As of a week ago, I do have a four wheeler now so work has gotten a little easier but I couldn't...

I know there are many different takes on this but I'm trying my hand at my first no-till/no-plow food plot this year and while researching the topic, I would say the average timeframe I've read about how long to wait after spraying Glyphosate on your plot was around 10 days. For me, I noticed a...

I just finished checking SD cards. I didn't think about this thread so I deleted everything that wasn't a buck but I had pictures of 3 does (different parts of the property) that were clearly still pregnant.

As it turns out, I'm going top buy a ATV tomorrow so the equipment possibilities just increased exponentially. Oh happy day! Lol!

Thank you! Have a better day. 👋

There it is. Typical troll tactics. Don't like the way the conversation is going so we resort to adolescent insults. OH NO!! The big bad troll called me a woman! Whatever will I do? GTFOH! You're going to have to try harder than that because so far, you're boring AF and totally unoriginal. Might...

I don't have access to a cultipacker so that's a no-go. Considering running the push mower immediately after I see but not sure yet. Like I said, I'm hopeful but my expectations are low. This is my test tube, if you will. If I don't get it right this time, we'll try something different next...

yeah, I've already sprayed (Glyphosate) and mowed. I don't have access to heavy equipment so cultipacker is out of the question. I'm considering running the push mower again just after seeding but not 100% certain of that yet. I'm going to put out some soil amendment this weekend and my targeted...

Don't fall victim to your own misguided assumptions. While I'm a "new guy" to this site and this is my first attempt at this type of food plot, this isn't my first rodeo with food plots and it's certainly not my first rodeo with forum blowhards that wag their fingers at folks from behind...

I understand the "assumptions" being made were based on their assessments from the pictures. That's why I took the time, multiple times, to describe the area and to point out the pictures aren't an accurate representation of the area as a whole. I concede that, on forums like this, and...

Great info! Definitely making me feel better about leaving the thatch. Just by kicking a little over, I can see the moisture is hold so that is definitely a good thing. I believe I've turned the corner and planning on leaving the thatch. Looking at your label, the only differences I could find...

I will definitely be watching the weather closely when the time to plants draws near. I'm shooting for mid-September so hopefully the weather cooperates. 🤞 Thanks for your input!

Hey Ben. Thanks for your input on the thatch. As far as the shade/sunlight, I've addressed that, ad nauseam, previously in this thread. The picture was taken in the morning. The area gets considerably more than the 3-4 hours of sunlight recommended for the product I'm considering planting. The...
