Does anybody have any info on making a small food plot in eastern washington...this would be situated in the blue mountains on biscuit ridge bordering the water shed. I have 20 acres there and a hand pump well. I have pictures of some nice bucks in the area but I want to create that little slice of tree stand heaven.

Best advise I have would be to get intouch with food plot companies and see what would be best for your area.

Deer and Deer Hunting has a website that can send you in the right direction. You can even send in soil samples. They will help you determine what the best mix of stuff to plant. I say mix because you will want a summer plant that brings them their but unless you bowhunt you will need a fall/winter plant that will keep them coming.

I grow several oat plots each year. Its a very hardy crop, requiring no water. Most deer dont start hitting it until it freezes or snows a bit though. Great for late season hunting.

get on biologic's web site and shoot them an e-mail. you will need to send them a soil sample and they will send you a report on what you may need to add to the soil and what will grow the best. make sure you tell them of the elevation
