Mar 19, 2025 · Ok, just hear me out. What if I rented equipment and spent weeks clearing out a few one acre plots in the woods. I kept them mowed and maintained all season. Then once season arrives instead of throwing some seeds on the ground I just broadcast corn. No piles, no turkey killing mold, deer no...

Mar 11, 1999 · I have a core type aerator that I pull behind my atv that works great, never tried the spike aerator but would like to someday. You can then spread your seed, I use my atv seed spreader. I pull an atv drag to cover the seeds, especially if it's larger seeds such as corn or milo. You could use a chainlink fence gate or similar for a drag if ...

Apr 24, 2024 · I bought some of my seeds at Rural King in Clarksville this year. It was the only place I could find flat Italian green bean seed locally. Planted a 30' row, and got 7 plants. Backseeded with more, and zero germination. Obviously a bad batch of seeds at Rural King. Also planted some cucumbers from there and got one plant.

Aug 4, 2019 · Just make sure it's not bait- the mix you posted first with corn in it would mean it's illegal to hunt there until 10 days after they ate every last grain of corn. That could easily get into deer season especially if the deer decide they don't like it. I …

Aug 2, 2009 · Killed a doe this week that was full of green browse, a little corn and a few honey locust seeds. Her tarsals were starting to stain and smell, just a little. Last edited: Nov 13, 2024

Jan 9, 2019 · Unfortunately we didn't have fence around it. Deer didn't touch corn (coons sure did) but they decimated every bean plant on a regular basis, didn't matter what variety of bean. And for a bonus ate every small growing pumpkin and cucumbers. Cucumbers are supposed to be deer unfriendly. I have soybean seeds ready to go for this spring.
