Want to see who has had success sowing fall plots like oats or wheats on top of standing soybeans? I am trying to do something over some beans tomorrow before rain.
Food Plots Sowing over soybeans.

The smaller the seed the better. Its preferred to broadcast prior to soybeans leaf drop. So depending on the variety, your timing maybe about right or months early. But with that being said....seeds in bag don't grow, so go ahead and let them seeds fly if you want.

When the bean leaves are turning yellow, sow away.

Agree with previous comments....we've done it before and it will work..... biggest problem we've had last two years is that there are very few standing beans to sow a fall blend in too...deer just hammer them.
I have had good success doing this. I do wait for them to start to yellow.

Ummm, yes they do! The below video is a plot that had a mixture of plants. Only 20 lbs per acre of RR soybeans. But after I sprayed the plots and killed everything else, the deer went crazy on the beans. They were a foot taller the week previous. Couldn't believe the browse difference in a week once competing plants were removed. Next year it's going to be 3 times the seeding rate of just beans.
