Sesame for doves
Any of ya'll ever planted sesame for doves? I bought some seed this year but never was able to plant it.....didn't hear about it until too late and then had problems finding the seed. Wondering what pre emerge I can use with it (next year of course) think I can use Treflan but wondering if anybody else is planting what they are using?? All I could find on the Inet wasn't as detailed as I needed it to be.

We had our dove club farmer plant benne a few years ago. Came up fine, got good looking seed pods. He mis-identified it as a weed and burned it when he sprayed the sunflowers. So we will never know. The handful I scattered on a prepped spot in my yard came up, and put out good seed. It's supposed to be quality late season dove chow.
Real fine seeds, planting it is supposed to be a challenge.

It is the bomb. We planted some up in Edgefield and the doves were thick as flies on it.
There's a whole Get in the Game show on planting Benne.
It's pretty easy and the deer won't tear into it like sunflowers.

Benne is the shiz.
We planted a bunch of strips on our dove fields this year in GA. I will get some photos and post them. The doves love it.

They had benne planted at the Webb Center several years ago when I got drawn for the quail hunt and that's where the birds wanted to be.

Was that the one where they had that crazy ass propane canon thingy??? Tater Tot was telling me about watching some show about planting some kinda shit and they brought out the damn canon because deer were eating whatever the hell they were planting. I was thinking it was sesame he was telling me about.
