Velvet Plus™ is a high-performance food plot blend designed to support antler growth, body condition, and herd health. Built for maximum palatability and high-quality forage, it keeps deer feeding hard through critical growth periods.

Planting Information

PREPARATION: Begin with a clean, level seed bed to ensure even distribution and maximize germination success. Remove all weeds and debris to minimize competition and promote excellent seed-to-soil contact.

SOIL TESTING & FERTILIZATION:
Perform a soil test to determine nutrient levels and pH. Lime to adjust pH to 6.0–7.0 as needed. Apply fertilizer according to soil test recommendations. For optimal performance, pair Velvet Plus™ with Fuel™ Cereal Grains, an enhanced fertilizer engineered for rapid root development, strong early growth, and nutrient-rich forage throughout the season.

SEED RATE:
Broadcasting on Prepared Seed Bed: ApplyVelvet Plus™ at a rate of40 lbs/acre.
No-Till Broadcasting:Increase the seeding rate by20–25% to ensure full coverage.
Drilling:Use a seed drill to plant Velvet Plus™ at a rate of20 lbs/ acre for best seed-to-soil contact and efficient establishment.

PLANTING DEPTH:
Sow seed at a depth of ¾" to 1". When broadcasting, use a drag or cultipacker to lightly cover and press seed into the soil for improved germination.

TIMING:
Plant Velvet Plus™ in spring or early summer when soil temperatures reach 60°F or above. Early planting supports optimal forage production during the antler-growing and fawning season.

MOISTURE:
Ensure the soil is adequately moist during planting. Supplement with irrigation if rainfall is limited. Consistent moisture is essential for uniform emergence and vigorous growth.

ADJUSTED PLANTING RATES BASED ON SEED PURITY & GERMINATION:

The recommended planting rates assume 100% Pure Live Seed (PLS) and 100% germination. However, actual seed purity and germination rates vary by lot and should be accounted for when determining the appropriate seeding rate. To find the adjusted planting rate, first multiply the PLS and germination percentages (both in decimal form), and then divide the label rate by that value. By adjusting for PLS and germ %, you ensure proper seed coverage and maximize your food plot’s success.
