Food Plots Deep Freeze

[Coker]

Will the deep freeze the next two days kill newly sprouting food plots that were frost seeded last month? I frost seeded my food plot, with chicory and clover, the first week of February and the last week of February. It has come up nicely and is looking very healthy. I'm afraid this deep freeze will kill it and I will have to start over. What are your thoughts?

No thats the reason clover is so great, its very hardy. Chicory is hardy to. We dont plant it just because of the herbicides we have to use to keep our clover clean.

Probably more risk in the summer than you do with this weather.

It'll be fine imo.

This looks great!
I have several and the threat to them right now is they are getting hammered! Little 1 acre plot had 14 deer in it at 5:30 today.

I have a partial still standing corn plot with a ton of corn still uneaten . Hard to believe . They hit that clover over anything .

Not much better then a pretty clover field in the foodplot world.

Ours are looking great too, couple days of cold shouldn't affect it.

Yep, this.
