Whitetail Hill No Till No Problem Seed Mix is a purpose-built blend designed for deer-friendly food plots that can be established with minimal ground prep. This diverse mix pairs clovers with cereal grains, radish, and chicory to create a dense, appealing stand that deer will often browse, even when equipment access is limited.

Why plant this no-till mix?

Engineered for shallow planting depth and shade tolerance, this mix thrives in small plots where heavy equipment isn’t practical. The result is a quick-to-establish, visually green stand that can help you observe deer activity and plan stands or hunting access around available forage.

How to plant

• Expose or scarify the soil and remove debris to create a bare planting bed.
• Broadcast the seed into bare dirt, then lightly press or roll if possible.
• Provide moisture from rain or irrigation to help germination.
• Plant at a depth of 1/4 inch or less for best results.

Timings, soil, and best-use zones

• Ideal planting zones: North (Mar–Jun or Aug–Sep); Central (Mar–May or Aug–Oct); South (Sep–Early Nov).
• Soil pH range: 5.5–7.0. Minimum fertility: moderate to low, with routine soil testing recommended before fertilizing.

This mix is designed for small, no-till plots and partial shade, offering a practical option when access to ground-prep equipment is limited. While results can vary with moisture, sunlight, and soil health, the blend provides a low-effort path to an established plot and a way to monitor deer activity over time. The mix’s components—clovers, cereal grains, radish, and chicory—are chosen for their compatibility in shallow, shade-tolerant plantings and their ability to establish quickly when conditions allow.
