Poor Herbicide Performance? Try This Simple Fix

With the widespread availability and decreased price in glyphosate, its use as a non-selective, complete burn-down herbicide for site prep on new and established food plots is becoming commonplace.

Get Serious About Trail Cams

Prepare Your Seedbed Early…Real Early

It’s already time to start thinking about late summer/fall plots. In fact, preparing early is beneficial to the plot and the soil. Every time you work the soil, moisture is lost and valuable microorganisms and nematodes are killed. Some believe that the best route is to work the soil well in advance of planting - typically 4 to 6 weeks before. And where normally one would burn-down all the existing vegetation with an herbicide before

Imagine you had two buck fawns with equal genetic traits. If one buck fawn starts life in good standing with ample nutrition and low stress but the other doesn’t have those benefits, as an adult the fawn that started off well will always have the potential for a better set of antlers - even if they eventually live on the same property. A good start is very important to a whitetail’s life.

Seeds are actually living organisms and need moisture to release their stored energy. Buying seed is more like buying milk or eggs than it is buying a deer call or a treestand, they have a shelf life, although it’s somewhat longer than those grocery store perishables. Some seeds will lose germ relatively fast (one season), while others like BioLogic’s premium blends can keep germ for years beyond the date on the bag.

Most often the analysis will tell you the N, P, K ratio (N is nitrogen, P is phosphorus and K is potassium) for the product. As an example, a 10-10-10 fertilizer would contain 10 pounds each of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in 100 pounds of
