I haven't tried HSG but I have been thinking of it on a smaller plot just to see how it does.thanks for the compliment on the plots, seems to take a lot to get a response of any kind on this site lately. Not sure on the deer like level on the HSG, I have not hunted over that plot to see its use, but a friend has, he saw 21 turkeys on it yesterday, and 14 deer, but tough to tell if they are eating the grass itself, or the small percentage of clover in the mix. It is so green, so over the top of anything else for mles at this point, it has to draw them in like a green magnet. Anyone else growing HSG?
I like that plan. Sunflowers would be awesome in that mix, but I wouldn't waste money mixing in the pumpkins. Plant them off to the sunny side in a small patch of their own. They will do much better.sounds good, I might do a solid corn row, 10 to 15 feet wide along highway fence, bit of a screen, then mix the rest of the field. If they still manage to eat the beans o the ground I can still go recovery mode. Disc WW PTT
edit:
might even add a bag of sunflower seed to it, maybe a few lb pumpkin seeds.........
