    There are a lot of folks out here who focus on holistic habitat improvements and will not compromise on that out of fear that it might inhibit deer hunting success. I think this is a great addition to your lineup and already have two places in mind where I want to try it.

    This channel is a wealth of great info for those of us who are new to the habitat development arena. I really like your presentation style and detailed coverage of the topics. Your products are part of my habitat plan already and I'll be adding more as the budget allows.
    One suggestion for connecting the details in these videos with the products would be to include a link to here from there. That way if someone finds your products but is not familiar with this channel, they will have a way to tap into this valuable resource. Keep the awesome content coming!

    State College Pennsylvania here , spoke with you yesterday about RC Bigrock Switch grass, and ordered 5 pounds to try out . I'll be sure to get some of your new blend as well moving forward. New to your Chanel. Really appreciate 🙏 your knowledge base. Kind regards...

    Follow up! I got my 1 bag of Forbes and forage in the ground. I lined a couple of switch grass pockets and then made a U shape of about 1/5 acre around a hinge cut area on a section of my wood edge. Excited to see how it goes.

    John they have to feed in the bedding area at least once maybe twice! Sounds like a great idea for doe bedding for sure. It should be great for helping control doe bedding in close proximity to your staging plots or hunting plots on the way to destination plots on small properties. Great idea!

    Sunday my grandson and I got
    660'×100' tilled along Westside of one woods in bean stubble for screening with 15ft wide of switch on outside and 15ft wide of your HDscreen on the woods side of that.
    Got switch frost seeded can't wait til June to get your HD seeded. Every 100' we put a 15' strip across to the woods edge to give us approx 6 pockets 70'×85' to experiment with for this falls plantings. Going to try to maintain weed free in pockets through summer. The screening is what we really need the most, but you know we're going to fill all those in-between pockets with some of your awsome deer salad bar goodies!

    Let’s see a video on how you’d make a bedding area with this and switch and a drill. How would we instruct Brandon to design it and plant it effectively with a tractor. Outer square edge in switch. Then waved lines of each ??

    Sounds like a great blend. I will give it a try. As far as trouble with the size of one seed to the others. I would suggest the biggest seed in a separate bag having two bags within the package for using in a seed spreader.

    This is awesome! I’m converting 2.5 acres of ag in central WI to a woody vegetation. Pockets of shrubs, pockets of aspen, and pockets of spruce. Would this be a good mix to add into the entire 2.5 acres as the trees establish?

    I have hybrid poplar regrowth that I'm cutting pockets out for bedding, this looks like a great option. Do I need to work up the ground, spray herbicide to get bare soil, or can I frost seed this on what's there?

    John, will this blend require a soil test and amendments? Also, will this blend do well in the Southern U.S.?

    • @northwoodswhitetailsfoodpl2663
      @northwoodswhitetailsfoodpl2663  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Sure a test and proper soil amenities will help. The are mostly perennial legumes so a low nitrogen fertilizer may help as well.
      Yes it will grow in southern climates.
