I'm looking to plant some food for the doves this year, and hopefully bag a few birds on my own property. I've got about an acre and a half area that I'm going to plant. I have 10# of Peredovic Sunflowers and 10# of Proso Dove Millet. Originally I was going to try and get a drill, but I might not be able to work that out.
Does anyone have any experience broadcasting these 2 seeds? I was kinda thinking I would just broadcast all of them over the entire area and see if it would all just grow up a big mess of dove food. Or would I be better off keeping them in separate areas. Will one out-compete the other? My plan was to broadcast the sunflower seeds, cultipack, broadcast the millet seeds, cultipack again. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Steve
