Food Plots Weedy wheat field

[buckaroo]

Since we have'nt had any cool weather to knock back weeds, my field are getting some tall broadleaf in them, you think bushhogging will be a good idea? Or wait on frost?

What weeds? Are the deer eating them? A little cover in a plot isn't necessarily a bad thing if the "weeds" aren't noxious.

True, just didnt want them choking the wheat, oh well surely frost is soon

It depends on how much shade the weeds are throwing. You can hurt your wheat if you throw too much thatch on it by mowing right now too.

Mine have some weeds too. Tender young native browse will get eaten right along with the wheat. It don't have to look good to be effective . I'd leave it alone.

Thats true!

Unfortunately mine has a lot of crappy Johnson grass coming up in it. That stuff gets tall quick!

Some deer like tall weeds think they're hidden.
