Overview
This plot is one of the easiest to establish, fastest growing blends you can give your herd. CRUSH No Till Field Mix contains a blend of 6 different annual seeds that are all highly attractive and nutritious to deer.
This plot grows very fast and can be hunt-ready in as little as 2-3 weeks. Works great with broadcast seeding but can also be drilled to a depth of ¼ inch. Planting into a weed-free, even seedbed will increase productivity of this plot.
For best results, plant 4-6 weeks before the average first frost. Here is a handy frost calculator if you are uncertain about timing in your area: https://www.almanac.com/gardening/frostdates
Time planting so there is a good soaking rain within 10 days of planting. This will ensure timely germination and prevent seed loss to turkeys and other birds. We recommend having soil pH between 5.5-7.5 for this product. Without a soil test, we recommend putting 150 lbs of 13-13-13 per ½ acre.
