      Yeah that pelletized lime didn’t seam to work out.

    Those fast acting limes probably raised the ph therefore making different nutrients more available to the plants and it may have kinda burned them some inhibiting the growth limes are best used months in advance before planting your seed but definitely an interesting video

      Hey Justin! Thanks for checking out my video. Those are some interesting points! Thanks for the feedback 👍🏻

      It’s just like the guy said you got some lamb burn-put the lime out well beforehand if you can and incorporate it into the ground. Good video

    85% ryegrass is to make a green plot for the hunter but worthless for the deer. A complete waste of money.

      Hey Steven! Great way to describe the use of Rye grass in food plot mixes. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

      This is 100percent true

    I've tried using the same stuff in my food plots and noticed that it seemed to stunt the growth of what I planted last year. I think something with the lime pellets breaking down at the same time that the seeds are sprouting stunts the growth. I think it may work better if you put the lime down at least a month or two before planting. I'm going to try that the next time I plant a food plot. I'm glad to see someone else got similar results!

      Hey Craft Outdoors! Thanks for checking out my channel! That’s awesome you tried the same thing! Great minds think alike haha. Please let me know if you have better results with an earlier application. I’m always trying to learn and improve. Thanks for the feedback and best of luck this season 👍🏻

    Get some lime down if you can just earlier than seeds. Don't be fooled into thinking less pH is good. Also your pH is not 3.5. It might be upper 4s to 5s. We have pure sand here in FL and even that isn't in the 3s

      Hey Joey! Thanks for checking out my channel! I’m aware about the PH range for optimum growth in throw and grow products and the benefit that lime has in increasing PH. This was a test to see if this particular product (Pennington’s fast-acting lime) had a positive impact on a test grow. I will be looking more closely into soil analysis for my particular soil in the future.

    No doubt that the limed side will be more palatable and taste better to the deer.

    what do think about the ryegrass in all their seed blends

    • @mountainbuck
      @mountainbuck  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Jeff! Thanks for checking out my channel! I’m not a big fan of rye grass as it’s typically the last option deer will eat (although they will eat if no better options). If rye grass is a small percentage of the seed mix, I’m ok with that. Best of luck this season 👍🏻

      They won't eat it....

      Rye is just a cover crop to make ur plot look lush and green also it’s the cheapest filler they can sneak into your plot mix to make the max profit off of consumers

    Why would you put rye grass in your food plot?????????

    • @mountainbuck
      @mountainbuck  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Michael! Thanks for checking out my channel! Oh I don't use rye grass (any more). I have a 3 part video series where I test-grow 10 throw and grow products and go into detail about the contents of each one (including rye grass). In this video, I was using some leftover product from that video and testing out that fast-acting lime on it. thanks for the heads up and best of luck this season!
