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.

Amazing

I ended up buying one for my granddogs. My boys which are tough on toys have had theirs two or three years. That means this is a high quality product

Durable for extreme chewers
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
My dog loves this and he is an extreme chewer and after a week this thing is still holding up fine. My only complaint is that when I opened it, it smelled HORRIBLE and it almost became an outside toy. It’s seriously so gross...

Too small for a lab retriever
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
If you have a large dog, I would not advise buying this item. It is very small. I was concerned about choking. My dog loved chewing on it and it is good quality, but I had to monitor constantly and tossed it the 2nd day due to choking fears. Great, if you have a smaller dog, but not good for lab retriever size!
