Is there anything worth planting on power lines that doesn't require any attention that would provide some food for deer?

My initial response would be wheat. It's the cheapest seed you can buy and it can be top sowed easily.

I think I would go with clover. The DOT grows it along the sides of the road all over Alabama with very little effort. I'd go with crimson clover.....maybe even some durana mixed in or you might try dutch white.

$8-10 a bag for feed wheat and it does as good as seed wheat.

What ever you plant, put out lime and fertilizer

A guy that has run a feed and seed shop for as long as I know. Didn't get too deep in discussion about "why." Said you can get fined and who you bought it from can get fined. I will try to research it more this afternoon. He also said most people don't know about the law, but said he did hear of some people getting busted on the eastern side of the state last year.

Never heard that one before but I would suspect whatever happened to the folks who got fined probably revolved around baiting a dove field.

Not just Monsanto. If planting it is legal or not would depend on if the feed wheat was a patented variety and who owned the patent.

This argument is BS. Sure you can plant feed wheat but there's no guaranteed germ or seed purity or noxious weed %. Gosh damn it just makes me mad some seed salesmen are phucking morons. And no Monsanto has zero to do with wheat. It has zero transgenic traits.

Here is pioneer's statement about their patented varieties. The question isn't if you can or can't plant saved seed or if you should or shouldn't, but if it is legal or not. With patented varieties, it very clearly isn't legal.
