Pea and bean mixtures make great summer plots. Your gonna get some that make it to full maturity and supply protein and some want...if its a major problem to get them to grow to maturity you need a bigger plot for the amount of deer in your area

I could have planted 5 acres and it wouldn't have mattered. They literally went through clipping every single pea sprout off at the top in a matter of days, leaving every other plant to grow knee deep. Camera showed it was all done by two does. Fencing a food plot is kinda dumb unless you're trying to keep hogs out, you're gonna need a 10 ft fence. In the south our winters just aren't cold enough that the deer NEED spring food plots, all they really serve to do is attract and help pattern deer to your stand year round. That's why I'm just gonna be slinging corn/protein.
