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.

American Bully Trial - Honest Review
Color: Cyan NylonFish
I have never gotten a toy that lasted more than an hour when it comes to my baby girl. She is an aggressive chewer and loves anything that squeaks. This definitely helped to keep her entertained and use her teeth. I can confidently say that this toy may last a long time but she has already ripped a piece from it. I didn’t expect anything less since she always knows how to test new toys lol. I would definitely recommend though and will be getting more for her once this one is gone. Thank you!

Hard, heavy, sharp
Color: Cyan NylonFish
This is very durable, but it is also very heavy (our dog likes to throw her toys) and after some chewing, the head and tail are very sharp

2 years later and it’s still going!
Color: Cyan NylonFish, Color: Cyan NylonFish
I have 2 dogs, a 6lb chihuahua (Lolli) and an almost 100lb German shepherd/Belgian Malinois (Uzi). Got this for Uzi, however, Lolli had other plans for it. She literally took it out her mouth and ran to hide it. It’s been over a year, closer to 2 and it’s still hanging on. Attached a photo of Lolli…

Color: Cyan NylonFish
I have a heavy heavy chewer, the only things that has escaped him were items like "kong" solid and rubber but no squeaky. He quickly lost interest in the toy; largely within a week at most and never picks it up again unless really bored. Squeaky toys had a life shelf of a week at best, that is with us taking them away to "preserve" them for longer. So far, this toy, the fish, has been the longest surviving squeaky and the longest at keeping his interest. it has received some cosmetic damage, but nothing that would make you remove the toy from his possession and it STILL squeaks.

Still holding up to my super-chewer!
Color: Cyan NylonFish, Color: Cyan NylonFish
It's a very good product. I would recommend this toy for a heavy chewing dog. My main reasons it's not 5 stars, it's HEAVY and the eyes peeled right off. My pup really likes to throw his toys around, this thing sounds like a cannon ball that's going to go through our floor! He also tries to destroy everything so he was chewing on the eyes and he would have definitely eaten them if I wasn't paying attention. It's not a horrible thing but I obviously don't want him to eat non food things. My dog also likes the squeaker in it, but it's difficult for me to get it to squeak. That's not a big deal though just thought I should mention it. Overall especially for the price, it's a good sturdy product that's cute and it's still holding up. He's chewed parts of the softer areas off a bit, but the rest is very hard so he hasn't made much of a dent. It's also about as big as his head, so he's pretty happy with it!
