MAINE Food Plot Planting 2023

Hello to all my friends and family. Thank you so much for checking out another video of mine. Finally, the weather has come in line with me planting the food plot. We have had so much rain that I haven't been able to plant. As you all may know you want to plant the plot and put the lime and fertilizer on the ground when the ground is dry but right before a rain. I have been watching the weather for the perfect time and now is it. I was in the process of putting rear wheel arches on my truck when I saw the rain coming in the forecast. I hope to have the video on the rear wheel arches on my "Handy-Capable" channel once I can finish them. I had to throw by hand 12, 40lb bags of lime onto the food plot for a total of 480 lbs of lime in this small plot. The PH this year was 5.8 before I put down the lime. I then put one 50lb bag of 10-10-10 fertilizer down. I will need a couple more bags of that and intend to put that down in August. I used one 35 lb bag of GreenCover seed Fall Blend seed to put in the plot. According to the site, 35 lbs is good for 1/2 an acre. I am guessing I may have about 1/3 acre in the plot right now. Now I wait to see what God and Mother Nature want to do with my plot. Hopefully, they will be happy with my effort and reward the deer, Moose, Turkeys, and whatever else want to eat out there. Thank you again for watching! God Bless and Good Hunting. Maine Noth Woods Hunter (Shane)
