Great 8™ is a fall annual food plot blend featuring eight specially selected seed varieties that mature at different times throughout the hunting season to help ensure your deer always have something good to eat. Great 8™ eliminates the guesswork of trying to figure out what to plant and is ideal for those who plant just one food plot. The winter peas, buckwheat and ryegrass will attract deer during bow season, while the radishes, turnips and forage rape attract deer during the rut. The winter oats and cereal rye mature from early bow season to late gun season and beyond. Great 8 can provide the protein and critical energy needed to sustain your deer herd well into the harsh, cold winter while also helping antler growth in the early spring season when other plants have yet to turn green. Great 8 keeps growing strong all hunting season long!

PLANTING DIRECTIONS:
1.) Antler King®’s GREAT 8™ may be planted in the late summer or early fall.
2.) Take a soil test to determine the pH level. If needed, apply enough lime to raise the pH to a 6.5 to 7.0.
3.) Eliminate any existing weeds on the proposed plot, either by raking, mowing, discing, or spraying with a contact weed killer, such as Roundup®. Wait 7 days to plant after spraying with any weed killer.
4.) To maximize growth potential, spray Antler King®’s PLOT MAX™ to help raise the pH, aerate the soil, increase organic matter, help the soil retain moisture and create an environment for the plants to thrive. Optimal results can be achieved by reapplying PLOT MAX™ in both spring and fall.
5.) One 8lb. bag will plant 1/4 acre (approx. 11,000 sq. ft.) and one 40lb. bag will plant 1-1/4 acre. Spread 100 lbs. of 19-19-19 fertilizer per ¼ acre and till into the soil prior to planting. Plant seeds less than 1/4″ deep.
6.) After plants are 3 inches tall, spray with Antler King®’s JOLT™ FOLIAR FERTILIZER, which has been formulated to provide food for plant growth. Spray monthly for best results.
