I planted several food plots yesterday. I have never planted this early but I got the itch to plant. To wet to disk, but I do throw and mow anyway. We shall see if I was dumb to plant this early. One thing about the T&M, do overs are not hard. I really expect to have to add a few more seed later. By the time i start hunting, itll look good

For where I'm at anyways, I consider the "planting window" to just be opening........You'll be fine now......Looks like its gonna be dry for a little while in behind this rain event which should push the next moisture out in to the first week of Oct.......I'll probably spread my seed ahead of that one......I'm waiting a little longer for the summer veg to finish up......a lot of things are just really seeding out. Mowing during the summer and setting things back can prolong the plant seeding out a little. I did notice that the caterpillar populations plummeted this week. Not seeing many at all now.

One thing about the T&M, do overs are not hard. I really expect to have to add a few more seed later. By the time i start hunting, itll look good I believe the guys name is Jeff Sturgis.......but one of the midwest guru guys has a way that he was promoting planting at one time where he was doing what he called layering his seed on......Basically he would start out with a low planting rate and then go back and add a little more every couple weeks for the duration of his planting window......His idea to it was that it 1) Just made the plot thicker and thicker......but 2) It also made it to where there was new flushes of seedling growth beginning to emerge for a couple months or so....... Now, I dont know how much of a difference that makes and it seems mighty time consuming.........BUT........I remember reading about that and thinking the same thing you just posted.......At worst case scenario I'll just broadcast a little more clover or elbon rye in a few weeks and maybe that might be a good thing anyways.....

I just dont know enough about it to have a system down yet. You've got the right mentality.......Use the concepts and principles to figure out your own "system" that works best for your situation.

My wife and I got over 18 acres in food plots planted Friday. It was 5 days of hard work discing, fertilizing and planting. We finished Friday and just as we were walking back to the barn the rain started. Perfect timing.
Cant wait to see them in a week or two. Planted 5 to 6 acres in an Alfalfa/clover mix this year in two of our pastures. Hoping I can get year round Alfalfa established as I have huge year round clover plots now that really hold deer all year. 5 days of work?!? Dang!
