When do you plant soybeans and Broadside?
Filed under: Food Plots
Question
Thanks Dr. Woods. I really liked you episode and method of planting broadside over the soybeans so that when the soybeans die down, there is still food in the plot. What time of year do you typically broadcast your seed over the soybeans and when do you typically plant your soybeans. I’m going to give this a try this year. I’m in the mountains of extreme North East Georgia if you have any suggestions on when I should plant in the spring.
Thanks again for your reply,
Darren
Darren,
Soybeans should be planted when the soil temperature is 60 degrees and there is adequate soil moisture. The calendar date when these conditions occur will vary annually. The University of Georgia maintains a website that shows current soil temperature at: http://weather.uga.edu/index.php?content=tr&variable=SL
Broadside should be planted 45-60 days before the first forecast frost. That’s about October 10th where I live. Make sure there is plenty of soil moisture available!
Enjoy creation,
