PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR FOOD PLOT MIXES (4-WAY CLOVER BLAST, UNLIMITED, BRASSICA BLEND)

1. Cultivate the soil to a depth of 3-4″.
2. Rake and lightly pack the soil to prepare a smooth, firm seed bed. Break up any lumps and remove debris.
3. Allow weeds to re-grow for 2-3 weeks before killing off with glyphosate. Wait 2 more weeks before fertilizing or seeding following the glyphosate application.
4. Fertilizer should be applied following manufacturer’s instructions. A good fertilizer recommendation is 200-300# of 14-25-10 per acre. (Check soil test)
5. Spread the seed uniformly. (Use rate recommended on analysis label)
6. Lightly rake/drag the seed into the soil to a depth of 1/4″, but no deeper.
7. Roll or cultipack the plot to insure good seed to soil contact.
8. Try and time the planting out before chances of rains to insure even germination.

Management for Deer Attractor “Brassica Blend” Food Plot Seed Mix:

To control grassy weeds use a grass selective herbicide, such as Poast or Select.
For broadleaf weed control our best advice is to mow at a height of 6″ (no shorter).
This practice will control weeds and stimulate fresh regrowth from your food plot.

Management for Deer Attractor “Unlimited” Food Plot Seed Mix:

With the seed combination of perennials, annuals, clovers, grass, and brassicas, it is difficult to control weeds with a chemical application.
Our best advice is to mow at a height of 6″ (no shorter).
This practice will control weeds and stimulate fresh regrowth from your food plot.

Management for Deer Attractor “4-Way Clover Blast” Food Plot Seed Mix:

Mow at a height of 6″ (no shorter!) 2-3 times per season.
Avoid mowing when in heat, drought, or other types of stress.
Several herbicides are on the market that will control weeds in clovers. Always follow herbicide labels for best results.
