Food Plots Amazing plots of turnip greens….

I went with mostly wheat and crimson this year. For the most part they are edge plantings with a smaller area in a clearing and one out in the open bean field. Looking good and I can't tell that anything has touched them. I thought with the poor acorn production the deer might mow them down by now. I did mix in a few turnip seed I found in one area that is kind of sandy. Maybe the neighbors all have lots of corn out.

Deer are just now focusing on the radishes. About 10 days later than normal, prob because of the warm fall. Not touching the turnips yet.

My sorghum got eaten real early this year so I went and broadcast a bunch of turnips and different types of brassicas in one of my 2.5 acre plots late in September and again in October, I was surprised by how well it came in and ive got turnips the size of softballs throughout the plot and lots of greens in the field. I just wish the deer would be interested in them but they have yet to even begin to eat any of it. I wont be wasting time and money on any tubers or greens next year. Kind of piss's me off as I thought Id have a honey hole since there are no crops no where around me and very little acorns, the deer just are not the least bit interested in them. It'll be sorghum and corn for me next year with over seeding of wheat late in the fall.
