Thank you Jeff!! This if by far the best video, I truly appreciate it! This style of video is what I have been hoping for! I shot I nice buck because of you and your videos (and because the Lord blessed me with him). Thank you again so much for what your doing I have only 15 acres but because of your teaching I've been able to map the property and last year shot a beautiful buck. So thank you! God bless!

Jeff, HUGE CONGRATS on the 100k. You are awesome and such an amazing influence to so many people out there. Keep up the great work.

Jeff, great video. I truly appreciate all you do to share your experience! God bless you and your family.

Absolutely the best food plot video i have ever watched! I learn so much from your videos while I live in Michigan, to get me ready for hunting season! Keep the content coming.

Awesome video Jeff! Best one yet IMO. the walk through each plot and discussion was awesome, especially seed rates that sound like rain. Really learned something there! Keep up the great work and good luck this fall.

Proud to be 1 of 100 thousand +subscribers. Thanks for all you have done for all of us.

Collectively one of your best food plot videos! Waiting on the rain this weekend to put my seed in!

One of your best videos yet, this video gives the everyday hunter everyday solutions! And Kudos to Diane working her tail off, hope she gets the buck she's after, she deserves it!!

The science behind this whole method is really amazing.. simple when you really think about it but def a lot of time and research behind it all!

One of the best video's you have ever made! Thanks Jeff.

Best video yet.... perfectly timed for this weekend. I will see tomorrow if I can actually do as instructed....Thanks again for your videos.

Jeff been following your lead on my 20 this year. Finally seeing nice bucks living on my land. Thanks for all the great info! Two target bucks, so far.

Just waiting for my seed to arrive to plant my first ever food plot. This video came at the perfect time and I am beyond excited to get it done!

Absolutely the best whitetail content available! Average joe can take this info and produce quality habitat. Jeff is the reason I started food plots. No need for bells and whistles. The experience and science behind this video is priceless. Watch this video multiple times and you will be on your way also. Congrats on 100k and thanks for all the great content!

By far your best video , thank you so much , i plan on watching it 3 times,thank you

Very helpful. I wish would have discovered your videos this spring. I can't wait to apply and incorporate some of this next spring on my hunting property.

Okay Jeff. I have two of your books and numerous KZread videos under my belt. Going to use your no-till method. Herbicide is down. Will plant in three weeks. Excited to see what it does. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

I love how in-depth this video is. You didn't gloss stuff over, everything was shown in detail, and you showed multiple different methods. Perfect video!

IMHO this is one of the best videos you've done so far, and you have a lot of great content. It is good to see so many different applications of your concepts. Any time you can add a few nuggets of info for those of us in the southeast or more southern locations the better, thanks again.

I agree with the southeast tips. When should we plant the buckwheat? I want to adopt this system. Right now we just let the weeds take over and till because we thought that was our only real option without a drill. Soybeans can't keep up with the browse so I want to try buckwheat for summer cover crop. Do the deer ever eat the buckwheat?

Jeff this is the best video you have ever uploaded. Please take some footage of planting your WI plots. I know it’s pretty much the same process but please do it anyway. Us viewers love the on ground physically moving videos like this. It make us feel like we are there part of the action. Please also upload updates when things start growing and when you seed the winter rye in early September.

Excited to see these plots come together. A lot of information on this video.

Put up one of your mock scrapes 2 weeks ago. Tons of activity as early as the evening I put it up! Planting my food plot this weekend using your system! Can’t wait to see how it turns out!

Yes that plot start is amazing. I just used a jug on my soybean field and they turned out amazing, I also got plot boost I'm going to wait to use that with my other jug of plot start. Thanks for explaining out the spreading of the different seeds.

Glad to have found your channel. Currently looking around hill country in Texas (menard, Edwards, Kimble, concho counties) , not sure how to pick property but we will see what happens and continue to learn.

Ive been planting soybeans on top of the ground for years and have always had great success! They last all the way until February with heavy deer browse. You know that from my EZ plots. Happy to help Jeff, good luck this year!

Thanks for the plot info i really enjoy how you explain every step on all your videos thanks a bunch 👍

These videos are outstanding. Purchased 50ac last year and on 2nd year following the food plot videos. Prevented me from getting sucked into to gimmick stuff on the market

Top notch information. Thank you sir for all you the information you provide As always keep putting it out and I will keep soaking it up.

Got my food plots planted last weekend in mid Michigan 1 day before the rain. Maybe a few weeks early but I couldn’t pass up the rain after this summer drought. My spring plots all burned up. So sprayed them all and now have fresh seed down for ladino clover, alfalfa plots. Also new brassica plots including rape, turnips, radish. Planted some oats and rye and will follow up with more oats, rye first of Sept. Have also sprayed for spring switch grass plots prep. Sadly I drove over my Earthway with the tractor but after I was finished. 😂😩

Congrats on 100k Jeff!! I know you work your tail off and deserve it. Looking fwd to getting a few plots in the next couple weeks.

Real curious about the plot start. I’ve tried it before but never really saw a benefit. But this was early on in my food plotting. Think I’ll try it again.

My man Jeff! Maintaining the standard!!

I sprayed a field, tilled it, then broadcast milo. I came back the next day with the sprayer and cultipacker and did both at the same time. Got a good weed free food plot now. I'm trying sorghum over corn due to the fact there's nothing for them to eat until October or later and it won't get destroyed early like corn. Spraying gly as you plant is a great method.

Love how you showed footage “in action” and your explanations of why you are planting the different varieties. Would love to see similar approach when you make your timber bedding areas.

I agree with Paul, this is your best video yet! You’ve said in the past that when using buckwheat you like it in the 6-8 week growth range for this method of planting. What do you do before that early June time frame with your soil? Have you double planted buckwheat to maintain the weed control so you don’t ever have to work the soil?

This is by far the best advice on line ! This is our first full year of the buckwheat ultimate no till planting. I can't wait to check on my plots in a couple weeks. Thank you so much Jeff

Great video as always Jeff!!!

I’m a visual learner when it comes to plants, and this video was awesome for seeing what different stages look like and what we should expect. Congratulations on 100k! You will double that in no time!

not having a packermax, I used my back blade on my tractor, to knock down the buckwheat, spin it around, and drag it around the plot--- worked great ! Better than the luck you had getting her out of the air conditioning on to the sprayer job in the hot sun Lol

Been using Plot Start for 4 years now and it works great! No more hauling bags of lime simple spraying is a lot better for this aging body!!!!

I needed this video, Jeff! You’re the man for the timely publishing of this video. I know you mentioned using urea but do you ever recommend the application of any granular fertilizer? If so what kind for the brassicas/radishes/turnips?

Jeff I planted buckwheat first week of June upstate ny. I'm using your no till system. Its been awesome so far and I planted my fall crops August first and smashed the buckwheat on the seeds after! I will be making a video step by step and all credit goes to you for your no till system. Once the video is posted ill let you know. Have you tried winfred brassica? I have then planted in my brassica mix plot thanks again! -Tino

Great Video. Thank you for you’re willingness to teach. I’ve got half of my plots in and the rest will go in before the next rain. Would you plant switchgrass anytime soon or wait to frost seed it???

Jeff, this is definitely one of the best videos yet, especially for someone who is very new to food plots like me. Two questions for you though. The place where I would like to plant a plot next year is currently very weedy, i would think if you sprayed that area, there would be so much dead debris, do you just leave it there or rake it up? Lastly for a brand new plot how do you know what you should plant. Im in Southwestern PA btw. Keep up the great work.

Very helpful and practical video. Thank you!

You can use as a pre emergent , prodiamine , and diothiopyr as a post emergent for weed control. This is used on many residential areas. Prodiamine is layed when soil temps are at 55 degrees for the first app and at 65-70 degrees for your 2nd app. We then spray bio stimulants like rgs ,air 8, humic n microgreene for root growth n color.

excellent video. Gotta get me one of those packermaxx's

@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 I have been using a free app "Field Navigator" to determine food plot acreage. You can use it for planning new areas and then also walk the perimeter of the plot using your phone GPS and get the exact size to be planted. You can also use the planting width tracking portion of the app but i haven't tried it yet.

I have watched a lot of your videos Jeff, they're all awesome! I noticed in other videos you say not to plant rye with brassicas but in this video you plant rye around labor day on top of the tilled radish. Will this stunt the growth of the tilled radish? I am starting my food plots for the first time this year so i am using this method and going to start the buckwheat no-till method next year.

Love these videos..first time food ploter so this really does help me, my one question is can you throw lime down before you spray for weeds?..say like when the weeds are still in dormancy in march?

Great video! How much would one expect to spend on an acre or so food plot? Also thank you for all of your tips and advice I use them as much as possible.

Jeff, I just started planting a food plot this year because of your videos! Thanks for the videos. I threw down some seed two weeks ago, a little early for southwest Ohio/ southeast Indiana. I put basic greens for now since we have some soy bean and corn fields. How would you go about planting a plot in a wide valley in between crop fields?

Keep up the great content and thanks for your dedication, sharing your knowledge.

Nice job with this one, Jeff. Got my brassica & oats in last weekend. Used the packermaxx over it and sprayed. Been using the plot start for two years along with the plot boost. It does work and minimizes the time & effort when the plots are on the other side of a swamp.

Like to use a little handheld spreader to do brassicas. Put half in and try to cover whole plot and do other half going crossways.

Great information! If the ground is hard should I wait for rain to plant then cultipacker the seed to have better seed contact?

Later in the video you said to cut in half both seeding rates. Should the radish be planted at 4 to 5 lbs per acre or 8 lbs per acre? I appreciate the videos Jeff. I'm learning a lot!

Second what is the typical seeding rate for brassicas 3lbs per acre, 6lbs per acre? Thanks Eric

Awesome video. I would love to convert to no till plots and I am considering trying buckwheat on my plots here in Central TX next spring.

I spent 2 years part- time while in college testing and developing test methods for many herbicides. I love Jeff's videos and he has taught me much. When it comes to herbicides he is right 90% plus. The type of water used does make a minor difference but usually is not a game stopper. I personally like to use soft water with a surfactant. But if soft water was not easy for me to get I would use hard water, rain water, pond/stream water provided I could do so with out plugging up my sprayer. Most important when using any herbicide is to use the PPE. I personally like to wear my respirator (not just a dust mask), rubber gloves, and goggles.

Awesome stuff per usual. Just planted the WHS blend into my standing buckwheat yesterday and rolled down. Am I going to have issues with the buckwheat as it actually seeded out? Inside the hauls was a cotton like core, I don’t think the seeds actually formed. Thoughts? Thanks for your time.

I have a clover plot I kind of use like your buckwheat except I'm 5 years in and have not had to replant I mow it twice a year last time August 1st with a flail mower spread my turnips radish and beet blend and my clover is thick enough it holds a large amount of moisture and it seems to stunt the clovers growth just enough to let my seed blend take off. It also seems to block out other weeds

Thanks for the video Jeff. I ran into a problem last year with spreading those small brassica seeds .... seemed not enough and then I’d open it up a little and it was too much dispersed. This year the sweet feast suggested using 6-24-24 fertilizer so I saved some of the fertilizer and filled the spreader with it and then added the bag of the brassica blend and mixed it up thoughly into the bag. This enabled me to open the spreader to the 3 setting and I’m hoping it evenly spread the small brassica seeds. I have no results yet on how it worked but what do you think of this practice?

Hey Jeff i will be planting your WHS mix this weekend. I wasn't able to do the buckwheat and have bare soil. I was wondering if you could steer me in the right direction to get it planted on bare soil. I have the soil tilled, was thinking it I was to seed, then drag, then cultipack over it that might put the seeds at a good depth? Let me know what ya think. Thanks for all the great content.

Hey Jeff love your videos! I had a quick question for you. I noticed some of your licking branches are higher than others. Are you intentionally doing that for mature bucks? Is it ok to have some that are a little high but still accumulating that scent?

So I have a question if you or anyone could answer this for me. I have a bunch bermuda grass that gross on my property in some spots I'd like to plan. Could I bushhog it down and use it as a cover crop for the seeds, and do I need to spray glyphosate first and maybe lightly disc it? Thanks for the awesome video!

Hands down your best food plot video

If I’m just doing rye on half my plot in sept should I do my 3rd spraying now or wait until sept right before I plant rye or both which would make 4 on that half
