This is what I do for larger seed like my summer blend and fall grain mix. It works well for me.

Great price. Load up!

Thank you for the response. With all the talk of no-till, throw and mow, and regenerative food plotting, along with numerous posts from experienced food plotters saying something along the lines of “leave the disc in the barn or sell it”, I couldn’t help but wonder why someone would make a...

I see discs. I thought those were bad for soil health?

What all do they test for?

In the spring I broadcast seeded Aeschynomene on some poor ground to try it out. It eventually took off and the deer have been hammering it. I’m sold on it.

I planted BFO’s for the first time last year and was pleasantly surprised at how many survived the winter. We had several nights in the teens on the southern Cumberland Plateau. Once the deer rotated off the acorns, the BFO’s got hammered the rest of the season. I’m buying them again.

Southeast TN....no rain in sight, but brassica and clover seed is going down this weekend. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!!!

Seems like oats would be a good companion to the wheat, along with an annual clover. Testing by Craig Harper and University of Tennessee showed their local deer preferred Berseem clover more than other varieties. As you know, WINA adds Berseem clover to their famous Imperial Clover mix for...

I use this 3-nozzle boom with my Birchmeier backpack sprayer. It’s well made, works really good and provides a lot of coverage, but your arms better be in decent shape if you plan to walk more than a small piece of ground. With the 3 nozzles, you are pretty much pumping nonstop to maintain...

I broke down and pulled the trigger on the ATV weed wick. I think (and hope) it’s going to be a game changer for me, especially with my perennial plots. I’m looking forward to killing some grasses, marestail and pigweed with it.

WINA website shows regular price of $13.95. On sale where? For how much? What nutrients and other variables do they test for?

Don't forget the crop oil. I use Charge SOC and get good results with cleth. https://www.keystonepestsolutions.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=355&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&adpos=1o3&scid=scplp355&sc_intid=355&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjub_opqA4wIVC7nACh12wgymEAQYAyABEgLeWvD_BwE

Looks like they like them. I did a 1-acre IC pea plot 2 years ago and the deer basically stared at them until Aug. Then they started browsing them, but not very much. Most of them seeded out and yellowed. I switched to Eagle soybeans the following year and they pounded them early and often.

If your plot isn’t too big I would buy WINA Alfa-Rack Plus and be done with it. In that bag you get: WINA Imperial Clover - a proven winner WINA-100 Chicory - a great chicory Grazing Alfalfas It runs about $40 per 1/4 acre or about $140 per 1.25 acre.
