Soil sample calls for 30# N , 45# K, and 2 tons lime . I was curious if I skipped lime and doubled fertilizer would the plot produce the same? And would deer eat it? Spreading 2000 lbs. of lime is getting to be a chore. Last lime application was 3 years ago and got ph up to 6.3. Not sure...

My question is does ph affect palatability to deer for a clover/chicory plot. I understand correct ph increases nutrient uptake but does it affect flavor/desirability to deer? The plot is in extreme Southwest Mississippi and is 1/2 acre.

Thanks Brian for the good local advice. I am eyeing Oct 1 as next forecast rain date, hope it holds true.

Thanks for the replies. Plot is in Tylertown. Another rookie question: I disced then dragged to smooth 3 weeks ago with plan to spray glypho for any new weeds, throw clover/chicory seeds, then make one pass w/ my drag (chain fence w/ logs) to set at 1/4 inch planting depth...

In south Mississippi and will plant Durana clover with six point chicory in 1/2 acre plot and have 3 questions: Does the chicory qualify as a cover crop for the clover or is an additional seed like oats recommended? Does 7 lbs clover and 3 lbs chicory sound right for 1/2 acre? What is better...

I have been spring fertilizing perennial Durana clover with 0-20-20 at 100 lbs acre but 0-20-20 is nowhere to be found. I can get 8-24-24. Will 8-24-24 at 100 lbs. acre hurt clover? Thanks in advance. I am in the deep south where the heat is coming soon .

Clover didn't make it through August. Weeds won so I did glypho then throw n mow. Center strip is 6 point chicory, outer strips are are re-seeded durana clover. Both planted Sep 25. Clover barely coming in yet but still have hope. Chicory doing great. The chicory is not really getting...

From label: Replanting: Do not plant alfalfa or clover for 4 months following a Willowood Imazethapyr 2SL application, if replanting is necessary to a field that has been previously treated with Willowood Imazethapyr 2SL. Refer to the ROTATIONAL CROP section of this label for plant-back...

Can I do throw n mow clover and chicory with imazethapyr? That is cut field, wait week, then spray imazethapyr and same day spread clover seed and chicory seed in the stubble, and fertilize. The clethodim kills the johnsongrass totally dead but three weeks later it is coming back/resprouting. I...

Clover plot SOS:july 10th photo , plot still looked pretty good. 95% clover %5 weedsaugust 28 photo, plot went downhill fast. %50 clover, %50 weeds.Mostly johnsongrass but broadleafs too. A lot of areas clover just plain disappeared. So from May 3rd (see pic earlier post) when it looked dang...

The right side of this pic was the throw n mow planted Sep. 19, 2020. I was very happy to see it filled in over the last 3 months to approx. %95 clover w/ just a few weedy areas. Hand raking the clumped up thatch piles, which were caused by rooting pigs, seemed to help the clover to fill in...

Thanks for the great info guys, hope to go check plots for weeds this weekend.

Original post: "Clethodim, Butyrac 200, and several other herbicides are great for clover, but my weapon of choice right now is Imazethapyr 2sl, I was using an ATV with a 25 gallon sprayer on my smaller 1 acre plots, 48 oz of AMS, 16 oz of crop oil, and 4-6 oz of Imazethapyr 2sl per acre was the...

Couple of rookie questions please: 1)Am I reading correct it is 25 gallons water per batch per acre? 2)The clover here starts growing good in late October, peaks in April, and keeps growing decent thru June. Right now its about 10 inches tall and very thick. If I were to spray now there...

The deer's ear was slit longways in two also so I was thinking he got the ear and rump gash injury in a fight and the bullet was a separate incident? At the time I thought it was a through the belly shot that somehow he survived. That the gash could be caused by the bullet wasnt even on my...

I got this 8 point and noticed a big gash on his left side like he had a fight or some other injury. Gash was well into healing process. Then I see brass sticking out his left midsection. What do ya'll see?

Throw n mow follow up: left side of plot was throw n mow attempt #1, has %50 to maybe %60 coverage. I sprayed clethodim to kill grasses and the clover that is there is doing real good. I think the pigs rutting and piling up the thatch in very large piles was a big part of the failure rate...

Right side of plot doing great with huge rain boost from storms beta and delta. Without pig and turkey damage this side would be %100 covered. This was planted 9-23-19, first attempt perennial clover, and it made it through summer! Many sincere thanks to those on this site who helped with...

Clover coming through good right here.
