Anybody ever try the "three sisters" mix in any of their plots?

[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5537318, member: 2805"] A couple summers ago I planted a mix with sorgham instead of corn in an 8ac field. It also had soybeans, cowpeas, forage beans, sunflowers, etc. Stuff grew so thick the deer couldn't even push into the middle of the field to forage. Beans climbing 5-6ft off the ground up the sorgham stalks. Crapton of biomass to lay on top of the soil during bushhogging... almost TOO much! This past summer we planted 3 small plots in corn, beans, sunflower, and millet. We seeded about 6x recommended rate, the plots came up great! But once the deer moved in and the beans got about 8 to 12in tall, they wiped them out. Still ended up with a plot full of corn, but only 1 ear per stalk and they were only 3-5in long due to overcrowding or lack of nutrients. [/QUOTE]
