[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5281288, member: 17"] Back when we were seriously into spray/broadcast/mow planting techniques, I would get serious about the process. Fearing the herbicide wouldn't get down through the tall weeds and grasses, I would mow the plots a few weeks before planting, then let the weeds/grasses get a couple weeks of regrowth before spraying. Then we would broadcast seed and mow the dead residue down on top the seed. This produced less mulch to cover the seed, but we got a more complete kill of the competing weeds and grasses. Not the best food plot planting technique by any means but it works. Below are a couple of pics of old log-loading decks turned into small food plots. Worst soil you could ever imagine. And before we got the ATV and pull behind mower, we cut these plots with weed-eaters (we were young, stupid and full of energy). [/QUOTE]
