Food Plots Food plot screen

[NChunt1]

I have a couple of plots that border some gravel roads on our property that we use to access different places and was wanting to plant some Egyptian wheat or food plot screen to maybe get up 6 ft tall to make the animals feel a little more comfortable. Any of you have any luck with any type of food plot screen planting

Planted Crush "Road Block" a couple weeks ago. Used leftover partial bag from last year and came up great. Did well last year even with drought we had.

Merit Seed has a mix called Frontier Border Mix. It has done very well for me. It is Egyptian wheat, sorghum-sudan grass, and millet.

Would it be a waste to plant this when planting food plots in late September (south bama) or do you need to plant early in the summer?

I think first frost kills most screening plants. I recently planted Egyptian wheat (120 days to mature) with the hopes that it'll be mature by first frost. I think planting them in the fall would be a waste, although in south Alabama you may have totally different frost dates.

I would plant soon to maximize screen

Egyptian Wheat is hard to beat but needs to go in the ground in the next 10 days or so. This pic is a border of it last September
