How much seed do I need per acre?
The recommended seeding rate is approximately 40 lb per acre. Adjust slightly based on planting method and seedbed conditions.
How deep should I plant the seed?
Plant approximately 1" deep into a clean, firm seedbed. Proper depth and good seed-to-soil contact are critical for even emergence.
Does this blend require fertilizer?
For best performance, conduct a soil test and amend according to recommendations. Warm-season crops, especially corn, respond well to proper fertility and nitrogen levels.
What wildlife will this blend attract?
This summer mix is highly attractive to deer and other game species, providing both high-protein forage and grain during peak growth and antler development months.
