Clover plot

[Blaster]

We'll after 3 floods and 2 reseeds. We finally have a nice looking clover plot.

Here is the plot after the first flood!

Here it is this spring after 2 floods and a reseeding.

And here it is after a 3rd flood and some needed sun. It looks real good. If anybody out there has river bottom and wants to grow a food plot Alsike clover is the way to go.

Are ya sure that isn't rice? Looks kinda like a rice paddy in the first photo.

Mine should look so good.

I was starting to think rice would be the only thing we could grow there! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

Blaster- I planted a plot just like yours (floods) about 3-4 weeks ago with Alsike. My only downside with Alsike was I have heard it's not as good for deer and they don't like it as much as other clovers. Have you found the deer are hammering it? Really like it? Did you have any other suggestions for seed that would work for your spot there? Sounds like I made a good choice with Alsike though. I am hoping my alsike plot looks like yours!!!!

There have been a lot of deer in that plot. Everytime i have been down there this year i have seen deer eatting in it. I kicked a real nice buck out of it when i went down to take the picture last weekend. There's not a lot of food plots in that area so that could be one reason?

Looks great! There is nothing better than river bottom soil.....when you can keep the river off of it! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

Lookin' good! My clover plots are still having an epic battle with weeds (first year), I'm jealous! Good comeback after the flooding.
