Well,at least where the deer cant get to em.Every where else is about barren,maybe as high as astro turf.Went ahead and sprayed gly around all my trees,so they wont be competing with anything once green up starts.

I have two plots of "No Plow" that are still standing tall. One has hardly been touched. The other has been eaten somewhat. IT's the 1st time I've ever had deer eat brassicas. They are eating the flowers off the plant though much more than the actual leaves as expected. I'm still keeping my hopes high that my deer are learning to like brassicas.

Either you have more deer or they like what you have planted more?

Mine are ate down more than normal, Im wishing I had more acreage in plots. These pics are looking at the same plot with a mix of radish, purple top turnips and crimson clover in the background and winter wheat close to the cam. You can see the turnip and radish in the first pic in November but very little is left in the last January pic.

I checked my plots this past weekend, they are several inches high, turnip and clover are eaten down, but WW is high. They are really hitting the salt licks though.
