Avoid this brassica food plot mistake. 

Just being honest…… Folks work to hard for their money to waste it on nonsense.

@@northwoodswhitetailsfoodpl2663 truth

Overseed rye once they start

That would all depend on planting date, soil moisture ect. 2 tons at least is possible. I don’t want to over promise lol 🤷🏼‍♂️

Get a soil test done. You may be low on something

They won’t take much summer browse pressure similar to beans or early brows in on brassica. You can use a electric fence or a liquid lime deer detour from Harper Growing Solutions

Nevermind I just watched the planting in sandy soil video. Thank you again!

Soil builder or straight rye

You can plant the hd screen in may

Good question With out seeing a. Soil test 200 pounds. 6-24-24 and 100 pounds urea Possibly some AMS It’s kind of guessing with out test results to go off of. But brassica are massive users of inputs,like corn. Too little fertilizer and you can get yellow leaves by late October. Many foliar/ liquids can work great as well. We like Plot Dr. from Harper growing solutions.

I would not mix them. We add a few pounds of radishes to the fall forage blend.

You can But a good brassica blend can be a better option

Great question. We tried corn with clover Combo and it didn’t do to well. We are going to do a corn over seed video soon. But rye and radishes are a great addition to corn.

@Northwoods Whitetails Food Plot Seed I was thinking of trying southern states brassica into corn / sorghum. But makes sense to use rye.

@@travissmith-wz5nc you can of the corn is clean and wider rows. And get a few good rains

I would add 100 pounds per acre of winter peas to the central ag brassica. For the big woods plot you may look at clovers and cereal grains instead

I would use winter peas instead. Sugar beets in brassica are a waste of time as they grow so slow and can be choked out quickly.

Sugar beets as a stand alone spring planting are a pretty good complement to a food plot program. But not this way.

Short season brassica

Yes some kale varieties and Swedes as well.

Kale is great for me for introducing diversity in an area where u have a large rape along with forage radishes. I've had many kale plants becoming the largest producers in forage over the last 3 years of drought here in MN on sandy soil. Putting too many turnip seeds in there is a mistake & will only take away from your radish & kale production which I've found for year to year August plantings. Kinda like having Sugar Beets in there mixed with some dwarf essex rape, that is just plain non-logical. Will a kill-plot tucked away in the woods with security have any drawing power when large areas of agriculture with sugar beets are in the general area? Just ridiculous & irresponsible. 😢

Get a real good weed kill. Broadcast and a light disc will get the seed deep enough. Yes 19-19-19 and 46-0-0 (similar to corn) for fertilizer A electric fence may be needed pending the local deer density

Planted sugarbeets in mid June in Central MN last year. Good germination but late planting date and fairly heavy browse prevented the beet from getting very big. Trying again this year with a May beet planting.

@@jasonmeyer4587 look at deer detour from Harper growing solutions or possibly an e fence

How big of an area does the 2# bag cover?

Can I get away with just glyphosate for weed control or do I need to use stinger and clethodim as stated in your add?

Half the beet is out of the ground

We will get ya on one soon 😊
