Food Plots New clover

[diamond hunter]

Hello,I'm wanting to plant a clover plot,is now a good time to plant the seeds and do I just sew them heavy and scratch up the ground

I've never planted this time of year. If there is a mild winter, I'd say it's possible for success. Is the ultimate goal for the turkeys in the spring? If so, may want to try frost seeding very early spring or when it snows.

I plant clovers when I have the opportunity. End of August is a favorite as is early spring. With a mild winter you could have great success. Plant a blend of clovers for better success. Crimson and balansa are cool season tolerant, ladino is great for moderate weather and arrowleaf is a warm season clover that is grown down south a lot. Scratch up the ground and broadcast these asap and throw some wheat out there also. Fertilize with P and K when you can, dont mow it till the wheat heads up then seed in any thin spots and by next fall you should have a beautiful clover plot. Remember few people get beautiful clover stands in one planting
