I Tried NO TILL Food Plots and This Is What Happened. I give up on my no till food plot. We have abandoned the no till food plots on some parts of the farm but still effectively use them on other plots. We were using the ultimate no till food plot plan for the past few years with great success. In this video I will share the steps we used to create successful food plots and the tips and tricks to make them successful. We will also cover the reasons why a no till food plot may not be right for you.

Good job!!!! Few buddies sent me this. I’m iowa farmer. Great stuff. I think most folks on here realize there’s some nut jobs making comments 🤦‍♂️😜🤯. Sorry you and everyone else deals with that! But great content!! Leaving those weeds stone cold dead is difficult & great u highlighted this!!

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching brother! I appreciate you saying that. It’s all good man. We have an awesome community and 99.999% of the folks here are super cool. There have been a few keyboard commando’s. Lol. Iowa is on my bucket list bro!!! Would love to hunt there one day. Thanks again!

Totally agree with the habitat work. Hunting has become secondary to the wildlife explosion at Freedom Acres. Glad to see you feel the same.

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

💯 brother!!! Appreciate you watching and good luck this season. (And love the name Freedom Acres!)

@clarkwheeler8764 10 месяцев назад

Good video!! You and Kapper are certainly leading the charge on getting your fall plots in and growing this season. Still way too hot and dry for me here in West Kentucky but I've got my plots worked up and just waiting for cooler weather with several days of precip in the forecast..

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Thanks buddy! I’m hopeful we weren’t too early. Time will tell, lol. I’m headed to Ky next week for the bow opener and can’t wait!

@kapperoutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Best of luck with the no till Joe! I am posting tonight on why I don't no till! Not that it is a bad thing at all, but since I have the equipment and time I try to not reply on rain timing as much! I hope you get some nice rain soon and things come in nicely for you! Cheers brother!

Hi Joe! This is another awesome video! I just got back from a fishing and Megalodon tooth hunting trip in Nags Head, NC. I actually did great with both. Now, back to setting up my trail cams this weekend, then around September 6, I will be heading to the mountains for a 3 day fishing trip at Smith Mountain Lake. Will email you some pictures. It's great to see you getting your land ready for hunting season! There are lots of good tips in this video! I always look forward to your videos! Rick From Virginia

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Thanks Rick and sounds like an awesome trip! We were sharing the megaladon tooth with some friends the other day and shared that you sent it! Hope you keep your trail pics coming and I’ll keep updating our progress. Appreciate you buddy. 😁👍🏼👊🏼

Im glad i watched this. I didnt know oats or rye would grow overseeding as you did that. Ive always used the tiny seeds/ brassicas radish, clover

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! Really depends on thatch and rain. Brassicas do really well using a no till method. Oats and rye need a heavier application. We’ll see! We need rain! Good luck this season. 😁👍🏼👊🏼

@rfb7117 10 месяцев назад

Joe thanks for the update. The older you get the more one enjoys "watching" wildlife. We have owned and been doing food plots for over 40 years and enjoy sitting and watching the wildlife more and more each year. We tried the no till for about three years and gave up. We just plant something that will keep the ground covered and weed free that we can lightly disc and plant our fall plots into. We do have a no till planter that we may try again in the future, but our challenge was our ground was hard packed and very difficult to plant directly into without lightly discing. Bob

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Hey Bob, hope all is well my friend! I think what becomes more obvious over the years is that as weather and the land changes so do the plans! I would like to try a no till drill but i too am afraid the hard soil and rocks would tear it apart. We have some beautiful deer this year and I am more excited about filming them than taking a shot. But you never know…lol. This season may be a dedicated coyote season. Take care my friend!

@rfb7117 10 месяцев назад

Thanks...we trapped coyotes a few years and that seemed to help. We also have a young man that is a serious and successful coyote hunter that hunts our farm and a few neighbors solely for them. Recently we are seeing bobcats. Just a few years ago it was rare to see any, but things sure do change. We have been managing for sometime to harvest 4-5 yr old deer, and in doing so one is able to see some extraordinary deer. I most enjoy the wonders of God each time I sit in a stand.

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

@rfb7117 Amen my friend. Many mornings when sitting in a stand I’m just in awe of the Lords creation.

Hey Joe, how’s it going my friend. Always enjoy watching your videos. You really have a beautiful farm. Yeah talking about the heat I believe everyone has had hot all Summer. I like the way you always taking care of feeding the deer, turkey and whatever else you hunt. Great video. Thanks for sharing and have a great rest of the Summer.

@bay9876 10 месяцев назад

I love the concept of feeding the wildlife with the occasional harvest. Wildlife have a good source of food, security from animal predators and a safe place to give birth. Water nearby with salt lick for healthy bones create a very robust herd of wildlife.

Just frost seeded one of your clover mixes into a freshly cut Tag Alder/Elm area along my creek. Its high ground with nice topsoil. Its a secluded bedding area just inside of food plots. Hoping for new Elm browse to shoot up amongst the Clove. Im excited to se how it turns out.

@mileshiles1287 10 месяцев назад

Closing in on 10k 👍. I haven't hunted in years now i just watch the wildlife walk by. I love living in the country. I have had haters as well i don't know why it gets to me but it does. I believe if you don't have something good to say don't say anything. Great video.

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Thanks my friend. The more I hunt the more its all about helping them reach their potential. I like to watch wildlife but I also really enjoy venison chili! Lol. And as for the haters, it comes with putting yourself out there. I am ok with critique but when it gets nasty they can just find material elsewhere. We have a great community and we’re gonna keep it that way! Appreciate you my friend

@JayN4GO 10 месяцев назад

I have a weedy field also Joe. Best think was cereal rye. The roots are so big they choke out the weeds. I like buckwheat in the spring and rye in the fall. Keep those weeds at bay. Haven’t seen a video pop up in awhile. Maybe they’re hiding you.

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

I agree; the thistle is what is frustrating but I think we have it under control. Do you till prior to planting buckwheat? I’ve seen it done where it’s just cast into thatch and haven’t tried that. Appreciate you watching brother!

Any new trail cam vids coming out? Good video as usual! I planted a Pure Whitetail clover and chicory plot early spring for the deer and turkey. It took well but the weeds have taken it over. I have a no till going in to the North of my clover and chicory about 600 yards.

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Hey buddy! I actually filmed on on the Stealth Cam Deceptor but just haven’t had a chance to edit it. I’ll try to get that one knocked out soon. And sounds like you have the same issues that we do. That humid heat has the weeds working overtime! Gonna mow the clover tomorrow and see where we are.

@stevenlafevers83 10 месяцев назад

Awesome video! Any. Feedback related to no till on top of grass?

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! No till will struggle just being cast into grass but you will get some germination if the grass is cut really short. Best bet there is to cut the grass, spray it, then cast the seed. Either way, may not win any awards but may bring some deer in! Good luck this season. 😁👍🏼👊🏼

The only way to do a food plot for best results has to plow and disc the old-fashioned way

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

When you say “the only way”…you lose me. Lots of ways to do a food plot. Also, the field where I mowed the clover would eat your disc for breakfast. Trust me, I have one all chewed up from trying. Tire’s barely survive the rocks.

@edmiksis5660 10 месяцев назад

@@JoeTheFarmer it's the only way to do it right to get the best yield on your food plot I plow first then disc I live in northern Pennsylvania there's nothing but rocks here in my desk is fine been plowing and disking for 10 years my equipment is fine

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Agree to disagree my friend. Always hard to judge ground you haven’t seen. I am 100% glad that you have a solid method that works for you. The tone of the video was to encourage folks to find what works for them. Good luck this season!

@brianchristensen3568 10 месяцев назад

I’m sure the nitrogen isn’t useless.

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

For clover it won’t add anything to the success of the plot. The clover will add more nitrogen than the fertilizer but yes, long term the soil will benefit from all of the above.

@EinsteinTeachedYou 10 месяцев назад

Clover is garbage fir attractant. So many other better things

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

It’s not for attraction. It’s for nutrition and soil health. And deer love clover brother. They will nosh on that plot throughout the season.

@EinsteinTeachedYou 10 месяцев назад

@@JoeTheFarmer in my area they hate clover probably because so many ppl plant it.

@JoeTheFarmer 10 месяцев назад

@wnyprepper Sometimes also depends on the blend. But here in the south they love it. Brassicas do ok but it can be 65 degrees on Christmas so hard to gauge palatability. Winter greens, clover, chicory, cow peas, and oats do well. But man, every year the weather is so different. I still need to till and plant that one plot but no rain at all in the forecast next week. We shall see! Good luck this season!
