The best advice I give guys for a fall planning is, whether it be radishes or a brassica blend with cereal grains, we’re looking to try to get those in a solid 45 to 60 days before your first average frost. That’s really easy find through Farmers Almanac, obviously, Google will help you out a ton on what your average frost date is. We want to make sure that I’ve got enough time to establish a really solid root system, and provide enough forage that will last you through the fall in the winter. There’s a little bit of a misconception that frost kill a lot of your fall food plots and that’s really not the case they just slow the growth process way down. The photo period starts getting shorter you know your length the days. So your, your growing process slows down considerably usually once the frost sets in.
