Use Cases by Region and Season:

Clover + Chicory is versatile for diverse U.S. hunting grounds, addressing the needs of land managers from the Midwest to the South. In spring (March - May), plant in shaded areas near bedding zones to establish early forage, drawing does and fawns for herd health - Midwest stewards report stronger populations after one season. For fall (August - October), scatter near travel corridors or mock scrape sites to amplify rut attraction, as Southern hunters note 2x more buck visits when paired with Spellbound Power Dust. Its adaptability to clay, loam, or sandy soils makes it ideal for small plots (¼ acre per 5 lbs) or larger leases, ensuring consistent results without the hassle of heavy equipment. Public land hunters love its throw-and-grow ease, fitting tight schedules while maintaining ethical practices.

Ingredient Breakdown and Nutrition Impact:

Our Clover + Chicory blend is a premium mix of ladino clover, red clover, and chicory, chosen for their high palatability and nutritional punch. Ladino clover offers 25–35% protein, supporting antler development and doe lactation, while red clover extends plot life with deep roots. Chicory adds drought resistance and mineral-rich leaves, attracting deer even in late winter. Unlike competitor blends with filler grains like rye, our non-GMO formula ensures every seed contributes to deer health - no fluff, just results. Trail cams show deer grazing these plots 2–3x more than standard mixes, validating their appeal for conservation-focused hunters. For optimal nutrition, complement with Sweet Tooth to provide calcium and phosphorus, boosting herd resilience year-round.

How to Plant for Maximum Deer Attraction:

1. Choose the Right Spot: Select high-traffic areas like field edges or near bedding zones—link with mock scrapes for synergy.
2. Prepare the Site: Clear debris and lightly rake soil; no tilling needed for this throw-and-grow blend.
3. Broadcast Evenly: Spread 5 lbs per ¼ acre for dense coverage, ensuring uniform sprouting.
4. Water and Monitor: Lightly water post-planting; expect sprouts in 7–14 days, with peak attraction by week 3.
