Thinking of planting some food plots in Blue ridge Texas where is the best place to find info on what would grow the best it's in a fairly fertile area close to lake
Lake Lavon
I would imagine some of the bigger seed dealers would have a good idea like maybe Turner Seed. Your local NRCS office or Agrilife Extension Office could be a good start. It is always a good idea to send in soil samples as well. That would get you started on any lime or fertilizers you may need.
I worked with my local feed store. They sent in my soil samples. Test results told me how much lime and fertilizer to start with. Then the feed store had seed recommendations that worked well for our area.
In that case, scratch spring plot off list. Nothing planted will make it if you have more than 2-3 deer
Fall plots, will be same proven varieties. Oats, wheat, some rye. Add a small amount of clover and turnips (optional on the turnips). That will give you food from October-late April/ early May
