    Default Egyptian wheat or Johnson grass

    Im putting a food plot in the corner of a big hay field this fall. Its gonna be relatively small, maybe 60 yards wide and 150 long. Theres a small hill on the field side that provides some cover from the rest of the field but I wanted to plant some kind of fast growing,tall grass to cover it. Just a small strip.anybody have any experience with this? Can you plant it in the fall?
    The price is firm.

    yall are mean to treat this guy like this...especially bc you are playing a cruel joke on him by telling him to plant egyptian wheat.

    the honest answer is JOHNSON GRASS. and, its better if you can find some established grass in another area. I happen to have some. You can come and I will show you how to dig around it so you get the whole mass. You can transplant this hardy crop and it will suit your needs.

    Let me know when you wanna come harvest and I'll get you started.
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    If 2th doesn't have enough Johnson grass for you let me know. That stuff is hard to establish and mature stock makes a big difference.
