While our roots are in the south, we know how big whitetails can get in other parts of the country. Our extensive team of dedicated wildlife managers have helped us procure seed and develop blends that thrive throughout the central part of the United States and will help grow those big whitetails even bigger. For the Transitional Zone, optimum planting time for establishing a long lasting perennial such as Clover Plus, Perfect Plot, or Sudden Impact is either during the spring or late summer – whenever you have the best topsoil moisture for the longest period. This allows the plants to establish a better root system to survive the upcoming winter. An early spring planting of perennials should typically be planted 30 to 40 days after the last frost in your area to ensure soil temps are adequate for germination. These varieties provide long-term nutrition for the wildlife on your property. Excellent stands of Maximum and Winter Bulbs & Sugar Beets can be established with late summer or early fall plantings (depending upon your exact location). Maximum and Winter Bulbs & Sugar Beets are excellent choices for over-seeding existing perennial stands of clovers, chicory, and alfalfa. This method adds late season attractiveness to any crop. Green Patch Plus, Outfitters Blend, & Last Bite exhibit optimum results when planted during late summer. Whistle Back, Guide’s Choice, Chufa should be planted when soybeans are planted locally, these bird blends need 75 to 90 days of good growth prior to a frost to maximize seed production.
