Forage turnips are an excellent choice for food plots, providing a nutritious and attractive forage option for deer. These cool-season annual brassicas are known for their rapid growth, excellent weed suppression, and significant nutrient accumulation. Turnips are both cold-hardy and drought-tolerant, capable of being planted late, even as a second crop, and providing high-quality grazing late in the fall. Turnips planted in July will provide grazing from September to November. The most vigorous root growth occurs during periods of low temperature (40 to 60°F) in the fall, and the leaves maintain their nutritional quality even after repeated exposure to frost.

Benefits

  • Deer Attraction: Highly attractive to deer, providing lush and nutritious forage.
  • Cold-Hardy and Drought-Tolerant: Capable of thriving in challenging conditions, extending the growing season.
  • Rapid Growth: Quick germination and growth make turnips suitable for short growing windows.
  • Weed Suppression: Effective at suppressing weeds, maintaining clean food plots.
  • Nutrient Accumulation: Accumulates nutrients and breaks down quickly in the spring, improving soil health.
  • Grazing Value: Provides excellent grazing value late in the season, ensuring a consistent food source for deer.

Characteristics

  • Type: Cool season annual brassica.
  • C:N Ratio: 25:1, contributing to efficient nutrient cycling.
  • Soil Requirements: Grows best in moderately deep loam, fertile, and slightly acidic soil. Does not perform well in high clay, wet, or poorly drained soils.
  • Seed Count: 220,000 seeds per pound.

Planting Instructions

  • Seeding Rate: Seed at 5-8 lbs/acre when planted alone, and 2-4 lbs/acre when used in mixes.
  • Seeding Depth: Plant seeds at a depth of 1/4-1/2 inch in a well-prepared seedbed.
  • Planting Range: Late summer to early fall for optimal establishment.
  • Longevity: Annual.

Forage turnips from Elk Mound Seed are designed to attract deer while enhancing soil health. Their rapid growth, cold-hardiness, and nutrient accumulation capabilities make them a valuable addition to any food plot. These turnips provide a nutritious and reliable food source for deer, ensuring your food plot remains productive and attractive throughout the hunting season. Turnips can be seeded alone or with grasses, providing flexibility in your food plot planning.

Feels good on a cool day.
Size: Large, Color: Navy Blue
Why did you pick this product vs others?: I was looking for a mock turtle neck T-shirt so I was a bit surprised they were almost like a very light undershirt or sweater., or heavy tee.  I like to wear them when it's cool or under a shirt or sweater. Washability: Machine wash, dry on warm as it's got spandex in it.  Has held up to machine washing without loosing elasticity. Quality: Not a highly refined shirt.  Quality is ok but could be better. Weight: About like a heavy tee shirt or very light undershirt. Fit: About like a tee shirt.  Loose fit.

The material and tight fitting helps keep you warm…
Size: Large, Color: Green
I am 5’8” tall and weigh in at 172 lbs dressed. These are the most comfortable cold weather shirts I have ever worn. In my humble opinion, what makes these shirts so comfortable and warm is the tight fitting and the soft, fleece like feeling on my skin. I wear and ordered the large size. The shirt is cut so they fit close to one’s body and look great compared to other brands of shirts that end up looking like one is wearing a potato bag. The tight fitting helps keep me feeling warm. No cold air pockets.

Better than expected
Size: X-Large, Color: Light Red
Intended to use it as an everyday shirt but the quality we much better than expected for the price so it's now a more special occasion pullover. Nice soft and comfortable material, well constructed and sewn, good loose but not baggy fit, nice heft and substance around the collar. Lightweight but not thin fabric. Excellent value = 5+ stars

Beware of Size
Size: XX-Large, Color: White
Inconsistency in size per other reviews. The site said XL was my suggested size.....I usually follow that advice. I went XXL this time and happy I did. The neck is a medium and the rest is maybe XL....it feels "fitted" too...not very loose. I will keep it as I like a snug neck---but this needs effort to pull over my head. Having said that, the material is soft and not too thick. Just beware of sizes.
