Question: I have some hunting land in Valley, AL. Central Alabama. We have a few food plots and we have traditionally tilled and replanted them every year. We just cleared off a new plot and planted rye grass. I would like to plant one of your blends on top of it. I don’t have a no till drill. Do you have any suggestions of how I could plant a summer or fall blend on top of the rye grass without re-tilling it? I appreciate the help.

Answer: Be very careful with rye grass. It’s a heavy seed producer and makes very viable seeds.  The seeds will mature at a time of year you don’t want rye grass and it will be a nasty weed competing with more beneficial crops.
