What to Plant Now for Deer, Ducks and Turkeys

We begin planting food plots for deer at this time of the year, in the early summer. We’re planting some Mossy Oak BioLogic BioMass. This blend has a mixture of soybeans, iron clay peas, and Lablab. This very nutritious blend can be planted in the spring and summer. These plants produce a high protein food that helps bucks build stronger and bigger antlers, and it’s really good for the does that are nursing fawns.

Clover can provide almost year-round food for wildlife with good weather and proper maintenance.

That was an eye-opening moment for me. Have I really become so focused on instant gratification that I expected the turkeys to gobble on my time? That’s not how turkey’s work.
