Eat up all their ic peas and sunhemp. I had three acres i T&Med. With all the rain it did great. I had an awesome stand of peas. Not any more. About 90% loss i guess. If theyd just leave their food alone a little while, they could feast, but no. They are pretty and they taste good but theyre not too bright.

I feel your pain. I don’t even plant summer crops on my place anymore. I can’t get a stand

You have to plant alot for a good summer plot. 10 acre block at least.

Or thin the doe out.

Change your summer goals to improving the soil

My soil is in fine shape. 20 acres of food can’t survive my pressure.

What do you have growing in your fields during the summer now?

Sicklepod. Pigweeds and grasses. Deer ate up my sunflowers and corn I planted for doves. I’m loading up my sprayer right now tho to put out liberty and roundup. Time to nuke all those weeds and have it weed free and fallow for fall planting

You would agree that growing "something" is better than nothing wouldnt you??.......What will you do next year?

No. Letting pigweeds and sicklepod go to seed are awful. I’m nuking it today. I’ve tried every summer crop there is. None survive. I’ll likely plant soybeans next year and use this new repellent we’re experimenting with in row crop acres right now. It’s showing promise. Right now my focus is a weed free seed bed for early September plots.

I’ve got 50 acres out of 75 on one farm of soybeans that probably won’t see a combine this fall.

Thats what i was doing dummy. Throw and mowing two plants that would build the soil and feed the deer.

Keep adapting.......

I’m done with summer plots I’m afraid. The milorganite isn’t doing it anymore and I’m not gonna waste the money on trying to feed them something they won’t allow to grow. I may try sunhemp but that would be about it.

2 years ago I planted a sunnhemp/buckwheat blend. Toast. Got eat up almost in a weeks time.

I chickened out on the liberty looking at radar. I went with 32 oz pmax2 and 20 oz of a 5# dicamba with a hot load of surfactant and a pyrethroid for fire ants. I have a huge flush of copperleaf and crabgrass. In this heat outta clean my weeds up pretty good. Hard to believe could possibly planting fall plots in 60 days

Man - I am ready - what all u gone plant this fall 257?

Here’s one of my summer plots that I planted in September and it looks pretty good and the deer are still tearing it up.😂

What is that Hayman?

Looks like clover
