[QUOTE="Popcorn, post: 5624103, member: 20151"] Roadway 1: if you want clover do t worry about planting till august. Plant at least 3 varieties to insure against soil challenges and help to achieve a good flush and season long clover. Ladino, crimson and arrow leaf make a good blend. Plant them with 50 lb of wheat 1 lb turnips, 2 lbs radishes. Get soil tests now lime if needed. Do fertilize after germination to push the wheat and brassicas. The clover will come in later. A lot of people seem to like chicory but I see no reason to plant it. Roadway 2: same as #1 Do not mow the wheat! Let it head and die. Game will eat it up. After turkeys hatch mow the wheat and fertilize the clover with 6/24/24 Plot 3 and 4 wheat, turnips, radishes, annual clovers I like crimson and balansa. Plant it end of august fertilize and hunt! Come spring mow to control weeds and turkey will love it. Replant each august Do nt forget soil samples and lime. You have small plots against big ag, you have to give them alternative food that they crave. Corn is of little nutritional value. If you get bored with this look at a rotation so that every plot gets planted in a great all purpose blend at least every third year. I like summer and winter buffalo blend and add sun hemp to the summer blend [/QUOTE]
