Good job using what you had. Hopefully it pays out big for you.
Tried my hand at planting a food plot for deer the first time this year. I have no access to a tractor or things like that. Put down a large piece of black plastic after turkey season. Covered it with cinder blocks. See first pic. Left it until yesterday. Went out and pulled it up and sure enough, everything under it was dead just like I wanted. Mostly barren. See second pic. I knew I needed to soften the dirt. So I made a redneck plow out of a pallet and some decking screws. See third pic. I drug the pallet behind my truck but didn’t have much success. So I decided to add weight. After one pass, all the blocks I had stacked on the pallet had bounced off. So, I enlisted my buddy to weigh down the pallet. See fourth pic. Drug him around the field for about 30 minutes or so. Then spread the seed and replaced the makeshift fence I had made. I’ve got high hopes that this will help add venison to the freezer come fall. I’ve read reviews that say this seed will sprout within a week and be knee high in 6 weeks, which is right around the crossbow opener for Kentucky. Hope it works as well as it sounds in my head!

Plant it and they will come
The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass alongJman5626 thanked you for this post
Always exciting to see your food plot sprout. I have a small mantis tiller that I prep my plot with. What type of seed are you using?

Nice. I usually plant rye. Cheap and grows well in my poor soil. This year I planted Big Tine No Till.
