Post your Favorite food plot pictures from this year!

[farmhunter]

Some of my buddies pick on me for taking so many food plot pictures!! I justify them rightfully so - by explaining how important it is for me to be able to look at plots from past years -at known dates and periods of growth - to compare and evaluate them for success/failure.

But sometimes I just like to look at my food plots and enjoy the results - Here's a couple of my favorite pictures from this season - post yours so we can all enjoy!!!

This one from the new south tower would have been better had I mowed the clover before the picture - but I still like the view from my new box!

and looking back at it from the south

Or maybe one like this -

they all make me happy - tough to pic just a couple!

I really didn't take that many pics this past summer, but here i a couple when I cut the rye to release the clover which is now in brassicas. I will take a pic tomarrow and post it. Turned out pretty good this year.

My new favorite food plot is a sorghum mix kind of a succotash mix of everything. Sorghum, millet, ewheat, rye, oats. hairy vetch. soys, peas, red clover, buckwheat and a few brassicas.

Cereal grain strip next to sorghum mix.

I posted this one in my property tour thread a while back. Trimmed up clover with some grown up old field border.

King Kutter tiller that I got from tractor supply. And the top picture shows the results of a spring tooth chisel plow.

Those 3pt tillers sure make a pretty seed bed. I love my KK tiller. It's on it's 10th year and knock on wood I haven't had one bit of trouble with it. However, I don't have rocks! My "shallow" throw and till plot is looking awesome. I might be doing that more in the future.

Are you just waiting on rain or temps to plant?

I planted the little plot along my driveway Sat morning, got an inch of rain on it Sat night...YES
Will plant the fields pictured above on Wednesday of this week, and hope for rain. My plan is to throw fertilizer and seed, let it fall into the furrows created by chisel plow, and then lightly disc, and pack with tractor tires and 4 Wheeler.
