Starting a Thread on this annual food plot mix in MN. In late may I planted buckwheat.(sprayed Gly,waited 2 weeks, spread fert/lime & disced into top 3 inched, broadcast seed by hand, lightly disced into top inch then cultipacked). This worked great, buckwheat grew thick to over 6 ft tall. Then past wknd planted my mix per acre(6 lbs SB, 6 Lbs R, 2 lbs T). First I broadcast my seed/fert/lime & then I mowed the buckwheat down on top & then cultipacked. Then I hit it with some Gly because I didn't like the amount of grass that I thought might take off & suppress the food plot. I'll post pics every couple weeks to show the growth. I learned a lot from the old QDMA forum, so wanted to start my thread here to help anyone else starting out.
