402: How He Builds Successful Mock Scrapes On Food Plots with Arron Bleise and Kevin Gross

Habitat Podcast #402 - In today's episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with Arron Bleise and Kevin Gross! We discuss: -Arron explains why planting an inch and a quarter deep in July left his seed sitting 21 days. -Arron adds pearl millet to his mix for the relationship it builds with mycorrhizal fungi. -Arron runs a zero-rate fertilizer strip in corn that comes back comparable to his full rate. -Arron lays out the 220-acre family farm his dad has hunted since 1978 and may one day lose. -Arron weighs splitting his share of a million-dollar farm against the ground he grew up on. -Arron wants every tree cut on a stand so mature that nothing grows in the understory. -Jared gives Arron the October window to spray sunflowers before frost seeding natives. -Arron builds twelve scrapes in ten days and will only hang a licking branch on oak or beech. -Kevin runs every camera on video and explains what still pictures miss during the rut. -Arron kills a corn-bedded buck that walked over his boot track two nights in a row.
