Harvest Gold™
Turn your field into yield
Start with good pH
Testing for pH is usually free with your county extension service and is a great way to protect your time and good investment. Most soils have lower than ideal pH and need lime: follow soil test liming recommendations. Your soil test will also provide exact fertilizer requirements.
Prepare your seed bed
You want firm, but not packed, soil. Prepare your soil well by disking or breaking the ground so that there are no living weeds. Your goal in soil preparation is to provide good seed-tosoil contact. Smooth your seed bed by using a roller or drag. Try not to compact the soil by working it when it is too wet, or working it so much that it dries out. Seeds will need moisture to sprout and grow.
If you don’t have a soil test, your plants will need a minimum of 250 lbs of 13-13-13 fertilizer per 1/2 acre. Apply the fertilizer prior to planting on well prepared soil. Work it in or make sure
rain activates the fertilizer.
Follow these planting dates/methods
HARVEST GOLDTM should be planted 45-60 days before the first fall frost. Broadcast 50 lbs. of HARVEST GOLDTM Fall Food Plot Blend per 1/2 acre into moist, well-prepared soil and lightly drag the seed into a 1/4 inch depth. A quarter acre is 104 x104 ft. Use more seed if your seedbed is rough as you may not have good seed-to-soil contact. Seed may also be drilled to 1/4 inch depth in moist soil. HARVEST GOLDTM is Powered by Eagle Seeds.
