When are you planting? We plant a combination of wheat and clover. Usually the weekend after labor day but that seems a week or so late this year.

Anytime after the nights start getting in the 60s. I've hunted the rifle opener in the morning, got down and planted during the day.

Honesty, most planting guides call for those to be planted later towards October. You will be fine.
I plant when the Weather Channel says the hurricane is going to missus for sure. Disc, broadcast, disc, rain all there is to it.

Not in the upstate but I normally plant the first week of October and it turns out great.
as others have mentioned, we plant oats and clover end of september/early october.
last year we got busy and didn't get oats in the ground until after rifle season opened. by the end of october the fields had greened up and looked great.
army worms are especially bad this year...i'd wait as long as you can.
It's not enough to simply tolerate the 2nd Amendment as an antiquated inconvenience. Caring for the 2nd Amendment means fighting to restore long lost rights.
Mine go in the ground before september 15th. I ain't workin' during play season. Army worms or no.
Planting this weekend as a matter of fact.
1st and 2nd weekend in Sept in Fairfield county then pray for rain
All about the rain in the forecast for me. Planted a few years based on when i wanted to do it vs when the rain was supposed to come and spent a ton of time and money on crow, squirrel and turkey food. Right now my plan is to plant the weekend of the 18th or the 25th based on what was previously stated. In Lancaster County and we dont start rifle until October 11, so little hurry.

When weather is consistently below 90 you will be good to go. Been doing it for decades.

If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever.
Missing you my great friend.
What is the purpose of these food plots, does the green make it easier for the deer to see your corn pile?
I want to be shooting stuff on my food plots when muzzleloader opens. So we plant in September depending on rain.
Always plant around rain in September. Going to try a different method this next year. Going to plant buckwheat vetch mix 7 to 8 weeks before I plan on planting. Then go and spray that and plant in the cover crop. Depending on rain will be 2 plantings broadcasted
“Duck hunting gives a man a chance to see the loneliest places …blinds washed by a rolling surf, blue and gold autumn marshes, …a rice field in the rain, flooded pin-oak forests or any remote river delta. In duck hunting the scene is as important as the shooting.” ~ Erwin Bauer, The Duck Hunter’s Bible, 1965
