Thought this pic was worth posting. These deer seem to really like my clover plot. Looks like they are playing ring around the clover.

I know where that spot is, lol.

You are getting some nice buck this year Brian.

 

[Netboy]

Shhh. Yea, it looks like a pretty close buck to doe ratio so far.

 

[Guest3]

Great! Did you get the brassica plot started yet?

 

[Netboy]

No, but got the seed in my truck. Might get it in tonight or Saturday They nipped by persimmion trees off:

 

[Guest3]

Cage em. Big wire cages. If they didn't whack em too bad, they'll come back.

 

[Netboy]

They just nipped the fresh leaves. Still some on there. Got to get some cage materials.

Read an article about persimmons and how finicky they are. Many never bear fruit. I planted some, but now will stick with apples.

 

[Netboy]

Hum, that would not be good. I only planted two. They are nice ones from gurneys or somewhere.

If my memory serves me correctly persimmon need a male and a female. they recommend planting more than 2 because you cant tell what you planted.

 

[Guest]

I'm even wondering if they are worth planting at all? Why mess with something that MIGHT work, when we can plant stuff that DOES work?

 

[Netboy]

Just wanted to try some different stuff. So far everything I'm doing seems to work okay.

Saw a couple nice bucks tonight.

I thought all the deer had been killed out there, according to some other fellas out yer way. LOL

nice pic. on the persimmons, mine are doing great, i bought meader persimmons which are self fertile. they are in bout 4 years now and started getting fruit last year, this year i'm loaded with fruit for such small trees [8ft]. mine were also de leafed when i took the tubes off of them, in one night the deer ate every leaf on them, they came back. must keep them caged though.

 

[Netboy]

shhhh... I have to push the bucks out of the way to get to my food plots...

 

[Guest]

Nice problem to have.

 

[Netboy]

Only if it were that easy
