    Well I snapped some pics of one of my plots at 2 weeks and the BLACK GOLD is gone!

    The first two pics are of my Evovled Habitats Shot Plot (Rape & Turnips). I might have went a lil to heavy on this application (too many seeds). Which is not good for the turnips. However, the plot looks good and thick.

    The next 3 pics are of my Bio Logic Hot Spot seed. These are looking good with some very tall sprouts 10-12″ but a lil thinner with new sprouts still coming out. I can’t wait to see how this grows and the deer react. This is the first time planting this seed brand and type (Peas and Wheat mainly).

    Looks great, I can tell by the color of your soil that its got a lot more nutrients then the one I planted.

    I am pretty much in straight sand that doesn’t hold water to well so hopefully we keep getting good rains.

    Very nice Rob!!! When I see succesfull plots like yours I Just Know exactly how you feel! You did a great job on these! Thanks for sharing these with us! I have a feeling we will be seeing alot more people from this forum getting the food plot bug because they have seen what can be done with a few hours of work.

    Thanks Guys, man I get a lot of enjoyment out of planting plots and watching them grow. Had two does and fawn in it just a few minutes ago (10:55) when I went to pull the cam sd card!

    Yes that soil is rich of ingredients Scott. Very lucky in that regard!
