I have used it for a few different plots in the past and has worked well for me. Only thing is, you should've planted it already. If it stays warm and we get some needed rain in the next couple weeks it should do well. Right now my plots are finally growing after the rain this past week, before that they were on the verge of burning out. No Plow is pretty drought resistant and doesnt require too much labor to prep the soil.

Chicken, Don't know where you are located, but this may help. Also, don't want to plant now. Wait til Spring. I would recommend the whitetail institute "Chic" Magnet. We have had great sucess with this and the Whitetail clover. I would also recommend getting the DVD from them. You can waste alot of time and money doing it the wrong way.
Successful Wildlife Food Plot Establishment Workshop

6:30 to 8:00 PM

As the Fall Hunting Season, approaches many are thinking, "How can I draw more game to my hunting area?" Many people use wild life food plots to do this. People have had varied success with these plots. Some have had great results some of the time and horrible results other times. Sometimes, the plot just doesn’t establish, other times the plot looks good but doesn’t draw the desired animals. This workshop will help you successfully establish a long term wildlife food plot system to attract your game.
Dean Sprague, Extension Resource Educator, will go over locating the plot, what to grow, how to prepare the plot prior to establishment, planting the plot, and caring for the plot after it is planted.
Dave Spann, Natural Resource Manger, Land Management Services will share his experiences in both successful and disastrous food plot establishment. He will share some tips and tricks to improve your success rate.
