LOOKING FOR SOMETHING THAT ESTABLISHES QUICKLY AND ATTRACTS DEER ALL SEASON LONG? THEN BOMBSHELL COULD BE THE PERFECT MIX FOR YOUR FOOD PLOT THIS SEASON!
A UNIQUE MIX OF “SUPER FOODS” DESIGNED TO GROW RAPIDLY, MATURE QUICKLY AND HANDLE THE TOUGHEST OF CONDITIONS; INCLUDING HEAT, DROUGHT AND EXTREME COLD. BY COMBINING ETHIOPIAN CABBAGE, FORAGE COLLARDS, HYBRID FORAGE BRASSICA AND FORAGE TURNIP YOU’LL GET MAXIMUM FORAGE PRODUCTION, GREAT RE-GROWTH POTENTIAL, IMPRESSIVE NUTRITIONAL VALUE AND UNBEATABLE ATTRACTIVENESS, WITH MATURITY IN JUST 40-60 DAYS. THIS PREMIUM MIXTURE OF BRASSICAS PROVIDES ELEVATED LEVELS OF WARM SEASON DEER FORAGES, HIGH IN PROTEIN AND CAN REMAIN GREEN WELL INTO WINTER REGARDLESS OF LOCATION. COLD WEATHER IS NOT REQUIRED FOR DEER TO BE ATTRACTED AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT IS NOT REQUIRED FOR PLANTING AND ESTABLISHMENT.
BOMBSHELL IS EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE BECAUSE OF THE SPECIAL PLANT VARIETIES THAT WE'VE UTILIZED IN THIS BLEND. THEY OFFER DIFFERING MATURITY LEVELS - FORCING DEER TO GRAZE THROUGH THE PLOT INSTEAD OF WIPING IT OUT IN 1 DAY. ADDITIONALLY, IT OFFERS EXCELLENT RE-GROWTH POTENTIAL AND IS DESIGNED TO HANDLE GRAZE PRESSURE WELL FOR A BRASSICA MIX.
SINCE THE SEEDS IN BOMBSHELL ARE VERY SMALL AND THE PLANT VARIETIES GERMINATE QUICKLY, IT CAN BE A GREAT "NO TILL" OPTION IF THE AREA LENDS ITSELF TO NO TILLING.
