Pay attention to your pH! Most soils across the whitetails' range are acidic, which isn't good for food plot crop growth or nutritional value. Acidic soil reduces microbial and insect activity, eliminates helpful bacteria and traps critical fertilizer nutrients so the plants can't use them. A pH test will tell you how your soil measures up - and the addition of lime will turn acidic soil into a perfect bed for an effective food plot.

Chufas are best planted by preparing a firm seedbed by disking. Then broadcast the seed at a rate of 40 lbs. per acre. The seed should be covered approximately 1" deep, and this can be accomplished with a cultipacker or by carefully using a disk to cover them. |
 |
Plant BioLogic Chufa in the spring when all danger of frost has passed. Chufas need 90-110 days of frost—free growth to fully mature. |
