    Can we add a cover crop, such as brassica and wheat after ther 45 days with Resicore?

      Very good question. I'm not sure if the residual would stunt that type of planting or not

    Great info sam thanks. I planted nutricrave as well this season. same results in central wi. The gen 2 beans definitely work well. Ill stick to regular corn because of the cost.

    When did you plant? Both varieties, considering I’m in northern lower mi, so about the same growing season. I’d want the corn to be hit during deer season for sure. Prefer early November actually

    How’s the different switchgrass varieties holding-up? Especially now with some snow?

    And that’s theirs new stuff. The old product was 110 day.
    In central wi I planted it with regular farmer 95 day corn from my area.
    The deer didn’t touch the nutricrave. As it wasn’t dried down. They finally touched it in February.
    They crushed the dried down 95 day farmer corn.
    Being dry is the number 1 component.
    Did you compare it side by side with other corn?

      @PFHabitat  6 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      @nicschaalma3508 agreed! Yes I had the 85 day corn nearby. They did hit the 85 day stuff well before the nutri crave. I'm sure there was some cross pollination going on but tough to avoid that in ag country

    Thanks for doing the comparison, just out of curiosity how much and when did you put nitrogen on? Also , if you get older seed you can just plant a little more per acre

      @@jamesfarrow2130 we did around 100 pounds per acre about 5 weeks after planting before a rain. We actually did plant a little heavier than the recommendation on the bag because we had our renter plant it and didn't want to make him adjust his planter. It did just fine

    Thank you for a great review for the corn up to this time. Could you please give another perspective review in March or April comparing the varieties again. I think it's important to have food throughout the late winter as its impact will be future health/growth potential of deer. They wont be in a deficit starting the new growing season if they've had food through the hard time.

    • @PFHabitat
      @PFHabitat  7 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      @brentwesemann agreed, we do our best to feed the deer throughout the winter with a variety of forages. Woody browse is my go to. The food plots are a nice supplement. March is such a tough month for the deer here in Minnesota, especially if we get big spring snowstorms. I'll be sure to keep an eye on it and report when they get it cleaned up

    How many acres of corn do you plant? Ive been wanting to try corn but my plots are relatively small and iam afraid they will get wiped out.

    Great video. Lots of marketing dollars spent on that corn. Traditional corn is less expensive and highly desirable by deer.

      Yah the deer are definitely hitting it now but I can't justify 4x the cost. I'll keep feeding the deer late season with the cheaper corn and my chainsaw ;)

    Deer will ALWAYS choose to eat conventional corn over Roundup Ready corn, until or unless there isn't conventional corn available, no matter the maturity date or growing season. A deer knows what's better (healthier)for themselves. Quit buying high priced seed. I get old seed from farmers. (FREE) I once got some from a farmer's old planter (400lbs) the seed doesn't go bad. I planted with that seed corn for 4 years (2 acres a year) The yield rate may be a little less is all. Billion-dollar seed companies make their money selling to farmer around the world, not to hobby/farm/deer hunters. Please don't take my word for it try it your self.

      I'm right there with you. I have a buddy that's connected to a seed company. He'll give me their "old" seed at the end of most springs. It always has great germ. The MDHA also sells it in MN at a very reduced rate.

    Nutricrave was not round up ready either? 400 for corn is insanity, one reason I don’t buy from Higgins, way overpriced for similar stuff honestly. I bought his beans once and those didn’t do anything special imho

      @stevedenoyer5956 not round up ready. Yah the 400 dollar price tag is too steep for me to justify every year. Lotta other good habitat work I can do with that
