I sprayed the area, tilled it and spread the seed. At first I was a little disappointed three weeks after I spread the seed only very little clover had started to grow so I reseeded with the left over tall tine turnips I had that were growing at an astronomical rate. The turnips started growing very well until this stuff decided to grow. This stuff exploded and choked out the turnips. I couldnt be happier!

I planted a plot using this item and it seems to be doing very well. I didn't use as much lime as they recomend but did use the recomended amount of fertalizer. The hard part is keeping the deer from eating it untill it grows fully. I guess that's a good problem to have!

I bought his stuff and planted it on a Sunday.Now I live in Florida so you have to know how bad stuff grows here.I didn't put any fertilizer or anything on it, and now it is Wednesday and it is already a quarter inch tall.I planted this stuff on a moist swamp that just dried up.So if I were you I would either keep this stuff really moist.I also spread a little bit in some dry sand and have been watering it every other day and nothing yet. this stuff is great.JUST REMEMBER TO KEEP IT MOIST!!!!!!!!!

A:
I know what you're experiencing. I live in Louisiana and have no tools for planting. I have tried throw and grow from Whitetail Institute with little success. I would suggest you try ShotPlot from Evolved Harvest. and prior to throwing it on the ground mix it with Delta Ags Seed Coat. You can get them both at Bass Pro. (Delta Ag is a Miss. Co.)Q:

what would be a good seed to plant in an area that does not get much sunlight?not even 4 hours of sun
Answers
A:
Rye and or Red Fescue. Available at Lowes, Home Depot or your local feed mill. 4 pounds for under $10 will cover an acre. Rake away leaves and debris sow and pray for rain. Rye comes up quick and the Red Fescue will do very well in areas with very little sunlight. I plant them mixed on old logging tote roads. You could also use Roundup in the Fall to prepare a sight for Spring planting unless you want to spend more for Roundup ready seed.
A:
If I were you and don't have very deep pockets, i would just try the cheap stuff.Answers
A:
Doesn't grow as fast as the Shot Plot seeds but that's good for a winter food source. Mine started to come up in about 11 days.
A:
Manufacturer says one week in common conditions. They give the following recommendations to give yourself the best chances for this timeline.Eliminate grass in clearing by weed eating, mowing or spraying (if spraying, allow one week before seeding). Note: plants require minimum of four hours of sunlight per day.
Rake area thoroughly to remove grass and debris.
Broadcast Secret Spot.
Re-rake area lightly.
Seed will germinate within one week (with rainfall).
Note: For best results, add 50 lbs. of 13-13-13 fertilizer (or equivalent) and 100 to 200 lbs. of ag lime before seeding.
