Throw & Gro X-treme w/Radish Forage for Deer - Easy-to-Plant Fast-Growing No-Till Food Plot Seeds, 5 Lbs

The deer are there every day, twice a day. The only prep I did was to spray Roundup before the application. I mowed the high weeds down that came back and that was that. Planning on expanding the area.

I was looking for a food plot material for Whitetail Deer that could be planted in an area with minimal sun exposure and this looked like one of the few that might stand a chance. I disregarded the instructions on the package about PH testing and fertilizing. I only had a small area to plant (10ftx15ft). I highly recommend (what I did not do) is to spray your area with a vegetation killer or something like Round Up 2x-3x over 2-3 months before planting to clear out the area.I raked the area with a garden rake to remove any leaves and debris, and scratched up the top 2 inches or so of soil. I used about 1-2 cups of seed over this area in a small plastic Scott's spreader (a whole bag will do a 1/4 acre!). After I spread it, I flipped the rake over to the smooth side and gently went over the plot to help ensure good seed to soil contact. I then mixed up a batch of regular Miracle Gro and sprayed it over the plot.2 weeks later I have about 4 inches of Rye Grass popping up! Keep in mind - it needs SOME sunlight to grow anything. The package says something like 4-6 hours a day but my area wouldn't even come close to getting that. What came up was not very thick, but it is better than what I thought was going to come up - which was nothing! I'm going to upload 2 pictures - one of the plot in general, and one up close. These pics were taken 2 weeks after planting. I shot the area with another batch of miracle grow again and will check it in 2 more weeks.

It was what I ordered thank you

Growing great! In one week was already an inch tall. Literally just threw it out and it grew. No lime or fertilizer just racked the dirt up a bit. Not sure how the deer like it yet but very easy to grow and we are very dense woods little sun.

This stuff grows fast and easy! I just scraped up the dirt slightly, spread the seed, and thats it. 3 weeks later it was growing great, full, and very green. I planted this in a small area in the middle of the woods that had partial sun.

They named it right, use on healthy soil, and use a hand spreader for small areas like 30x50! Water if possible to increase germination time!

Good product

Highly recommend this product! The grass grows so green and beautiful. I know it is to attract dear but I want to do my whole yard.
