Tecomate, it was seeded last fall into an area with low light and minimal moisture and poor ph, put down 50#s of 10/10/10 today as the chicory is cut half and half with Imperial Extreme. My experence has been that the deer dont hammer the chicory hard til the rest of the woods starts to mature, hopefully I can get a decent stand in there before they mow it, this farm is near my home and consits of 40 ag and 40 woods that buts up to a county park. This year is the first year with soybeans on the farm since I gain total acess, should be a good one!
