Recommended Soil pH: 6.5-7.0

Available Bag Size(s)and Coverage:#IMP4 Net Wt 4lbs (.5 acre)
#IMP18 Net Wt 18lbs (2.25 acres)
Seeds: Imperial Clover is a professionally formulated blend of high yielding clover varieties that offers very unique traits when compared to traditional plantings for wildlife.

Soil Recommendation: Avoid sandy soils, hilltops and steep slopes

Planting Times: Spring/Early Summer or Mid-August/Fall. Ideal seed for frost seeding.

Product Description: Imperial Whitetail Clover is a professionally formulated blend of high yielding clover varieties that offers very unique traits when compared to traditional plantings for wildlife. Wildlife biologists now know the critical importance of high-quality forage and browse for whitetails year-round, especially during the spring and summer months of antler growth and fawn development. Without high-quality, high-protein browse during the antler-growth season, a buck’s antlers will not reach their genetic potential.

Imperial Whitetail Clover produces up to 30 – 35 % protein 12 months a year and can last for up to 5 years without replanting, saving you time and money! In terms of attractiveness, Imperial Clover has no equal. Part of the stipulation in the design of Imperial Clover was that it had to be the most attractive food plot available to the deer. After all, no matter how nutritious a food plot is, if the deer do not eat it, it doesn’t matter. In this respect, expectations for high attractiveness were exceeded.

Because of its design, Imperial Clover is a lush, sweet, highly digestible forage that is a virtual magnet to deer – it actually pulls deer from surrounding areas. Until Imperial Clover was developed, no single planting was known to us that would stay green and productive 12 months a year throughout the Country and perform well from Canada to Florida.

Imperial Alfa-Rack Plus

Type of Mix: Perennial

Seeding Rate: 7lbs/1 acre

Recommended Soil pH: 6.5-7.0

Bag Size and Coverage:#IAP3.75 Net Wt 3.75lbs (.25 acre)
#IAP16.75 Net Wt 16.5lbs (1.25 acres)
Seeds: Imperial Whitetail Clover performs well in soils that hold moisture. By adding Imperial Whitetail Clover to Alfa-Rack Plus blend, the clover fills in where soils are moist and the X-9 Alfalfa and chicory dominate where soils are more well drained.

Soils: Avoid Sandy Soils and Heavy Soils. Prefers slightly well drained soil.

Planting Times: Spring/Early Summer or Mid-August/Fall. Can be applied as a frost seeding.

Product Description: For decades, Alfa-Rack has been one of the most successful forages ever offered by The Whitetail Institute. But the Whitetail Institute is never satisfied to simply rest on even the dramatic success of any forage blend, and ever since the introduction of Alfa-Rack, research has been ongoing for ways to enhance this already highly successful product. In 2005, our continuing research and development culminated in the development of what is unquestionably the best alfalfa-based whitetail food plot product available on the market today, Alfa-Rack Plus.

Imperial Whitetail Clover – the best clover blend on the market for deer food plots – was added to complete the Alfa-Rack Plus formulation. Imperial Whitetail Clover performs well in soils that hold moisture. By adding Imperial Whitetail Clover to Alfa-Rack Plus blend, the clover fills in where soils are moist and the X-9 Alfalfa and chicory dominate where soils are more well drained.

Alfa-Rack Plus has been enhanced by the addition of chicory. Chicory is a highly drought tolerant plant that is attractive to deer, especially in late summer and early fall. Chicory, like alfalfa, is very high in protein. In fact, protein levels in chicory can reach as high as 46 percent. Chicory has received a lot of press lately in terms of being used in food plots. But be warned, food plots of chicory alone have many limitations and not all chicory varieties work well for deer food plots. There are many varieties that are not as attractive to deer. The chicory used in Alfa-Rack Plus has been tested thoroughly and chosen specifically based on deer attraction and nutrition. With the addition of chicory, Alfa-Rack Plus has become even more drought tolerant than the original Alfa-Rack. Again, this enables Alfa-Rack Plus to be planted in a wider geographic range and be more effective.

Available Bag Sizes and Coverage:#EXT5.6 Net Wt 5.6lbs (.25 acre)
#EXT23 Net Wt 23lbs (1 acre)
#EXT56 net Wt 56lbs (2.5 acres)

Seeds: Institute Director of Forage Research, Dr. Wiley Johnson describes this product in more detail. “The primary component of Extreme is an evergreen forb. This is a very durable plant that produces a deep tap root which allows it to thrive in harsh climatic regions and grow up to 15 inches tall while maintaining high palatability. Along with the evergreen forb, the seed blend includes hardy varieties of chicory and clover.”

Soils: Will grow in poor soils

Planting Times: Spring/Early Summer or Fall.

Lighting Requirements: Needs 3-4 Hours of sunlight per day.

Product Description: Thanks to years of research, painstaking genetic selection and careful blending of seeds, new Extreme can withstand a pH range of 5.4 to 7.5 and requires only a minimum of 15 inches of rainfall. It is also remarkably heat resistant and cold tolerant. In short, it’s a tough product for extreme conditions.

Most important, Extreme provides a high-quality protein-rich food source all year round. The kind of protein necessary to produce healthy deer and fawns and especially trophy racks in the critical 200-day antler-growing season.

Just as importantly, deer are extremely attracted to the seed blend. As a matter of fact, its attractiveness actually rivals that of the legendary Imperial Whitetail Clover.

“It not only delivers protein, it’s extraordinarily attractive to whitetail,” Dr. Johnson continues. “As a matter of fact, at test sites around North America, deer crowded into Extreme food plots during all seasons. And many field testers observed deer in the food plots at all times of the day as well. Other wildlife, like turkeys, geese and rabbits are also highly attracted to the product.

And like Imperial Clover and Alfa-Rack, Extreme can last up to five years without replanting, providing vital protein to whitetail herds’ season after season.

Soils: Most soils

Planting Times: Spring/Early Summer

Sunlight: Requires 4-6 Hours of Direct Sun

Product Description: Imperial PowerPlant, is an annual planting mixture that consists of warm season forages that work together to offer an ultra high-protein food source. Completely different than any product developed by the Institute, PowerPlant provides more tonnage of browse per acre than any food plot product available.

The unique seed blend includes small amounts of sorghum and sunflowers along with heavy doses of beans and peas. The specially developed legumes found in PowerPlant are fast growing and extremely high in protein. Because of the unique blend of forages and fast growing capabilities, PowerPlant can be planted in smaller acreages and has a much better chance of surviving relatively heavy browsing.

PowerPlant produces over 30 percent protein and also provides good cover for bedding. It contains 4 legumes that have an excellent chance of survival because they are blended with palatable forages that grow taller and can protect the other plants from overgrazing at an early stage.

PowerPlant is a spring/summer planting that grows very well in a variety of moist and dry soils, and has been field tested around the country on wild, free-ranging deer. The plot will typically thrive throughout the hottest months and into early fall.

Imperial Whitetail Winter-Greens

Type of Mix: Annual

Seeding Rate: 6lbs/1 acre

Recommended Soil pH: 6.0-7.0

Available Bag Sizes and Coverages:
#WG3 Net Wt 3lbs (.5 acre)
#WG12 Net Wt 12lbs (2 acres)

Seeds: The product, Winter-Greens, is the Whitetail Institute’s answer to late-season and winter food plot problems. A brassica blend, Winter-Greens is designed specifically to attract deer in late season.

Soils: Well Drained Heavy Soils

Planting Times: Summer (July/August)

Product Description Some plot plantings become less attractive with cold weather and hard frosts. Others may not lose their allure but, when buried in snow, they require more effort than the deer are willing to expend, especially if there are alternative food sources that require less effort. The Whitetail Institute’s late-season food plot product, Winter-Greens, is the answer to these winter problems. A brassica blend, Winter-Greens is designed specifically to attract deer in late season.

Winter-Greens is the most effective late-season food plot product you can plant. Brassicas by nature actually sweeten with a hard frost. To be precise, the first hard frost triggers plant maturity, which in turn results in a sweeter taste. It’s like a banana. When it’s still green, a banana is not very tasty. Once mature or ripe however, a yellow banana is very tasty. The brassicas in Winter-Greens are palatable to deer right away, and they get even tastier after a hard frost. So, while other food plots are becoming less appealing, or are getting eaten down, Winter-Greens is getting better. And don’t think the deer don’t know it!

It’s no secret that Imperial Clover and Whitetail Institute’s Forage Brassicas are winter hearty, making the Double-Cross blend a perfect food plot for fall planting.

Tall Tine Tubers

Type of Mix: Annual.

Seeding Rate: 6lbs/1 acre

Recommended Soil pH: 6.0-7.0

Available Bag Sizes and Coverage:
#TT3 Net Wt 3lbs (.5 acre)
#TT12 Net Wt 12lbs (2.25 acres)

Seeds: Whitetail’s blend of Forage Turnips and Kale

Soils: Suitable for most well drained soils

Planting Times: Late Summer (July, August)

Sunlight: Plants in this mix require full sunlight

Product Description: TALL TINE TUBERS is designed to provide deer with two food sources (forage and tubers) for late fall through winter.
Unlike commodity-seed type turnips, TALL TINE TUBERS is the only tuber variety specifically developed for whitetail deer food plots. The new turnip variety in TALL TINE TUBERS was developed over six years of exhaustive research, development and testing under real-world conditions on wild, free-ranging deer across the United States and Canada to be sure it would be as productive and attractive to deer as possible.

In developing TALL TINE TUBERS, candidate turnips were planted in plots available to wild deer and then closely monitored for deer usage. The plants that deer exhibited a marked preference for were isolated from further grazing with exclusion cages, allowing those plants to mature and produce seed. Exclusion cages allowed continuing evaluation of other traits important for deer food plots including rapid stand establishment, early plant vigor and resistance to disease, insects, heat, drought and cold. Plants that did not meet the Institute’s strict testing requirements were eliminated at each selection cycle.

Tests on wild deer proved to the Whitetail Institute’s Research and Development Team and to the Institute’s Certified Research Stations across North America that their efforts had created the most productive’ attractive’ and cold-tolerant turnip product possible. After six years of exhaustive research, development and testing, TALL TINES TUBERS met all the Institute’s strict requirements and is now available to the public.

TALL TINE TUBERS is only available in Whitetail Institute products.

Food Plot Vitamins, Minerals & Supplements

Imperial Whitetail 30-06

Like humans, a deer’s available diet seldom supplies all the minerals, vitamins, and protein necessary for maximum health and growth. Whitetail Institute food plot products provide a tremendous amount of antler-growing protein on a year-round basis but other vitamins and minerals may be unavailable which could result in deer that are not reaching their full genetic potential. Like humans, it is beneficial for deer to have a mineral and vitamin supplement on a daily basis. Imperial Whitetail 30-06 supplements are the answer.

Like all Whitetail Institute products, 30-06 minerals have been scientifically developed after years of research and development by wildlife biologists, nutritionists and field testers for the Whitetail Institute of North America. Regardless of any mineral or vitamin deficiency in your habitat, Imperial 30-06 mineral products provide the principal elements deer need. The PLUS PROTEIN formula also provides a 10% protein boost. If you want a healthier deer herd in your neck of the woods, provide them with 30-06 minerals and you can have healthier bucks and does which results in larger racks and healthier fawns.

30-06 Minerals are great products for hunters who want to provide a food plot and want an attractant nearby that provides vitamins and minerals for the herd. 30-06 also works well as a stand alone product for hunters with small parcels of land that don’t have the space for food plots. Just create a 30-06 lick on the ground and let the deer find it.

30-06 products are also great attractants and can attract deer from long distances. In fact 30-06 products are so attractive, some states consider them bait. Consult your local game laws before hunting over a 30-06 lick site.

Herbicides, Minerals & Accessories

Slay

Slay the Broadleaf Weeds in Your Food Plot

Slay Herbicide was developed by the Whitetail Institute to help control broadleaf weeds. Like grasses, broadleaf weeds come in many shapes and forms, both perennials and annuals. Thistles, dock weed and ragweed are examples of broadleaf weeds that can damage or destroy food plots. Broadleaf weeds, like grasses, can spread quickly and take valuable moisture and nutrients from the soil. Slay Herbicide effectively controls broadleaf weeds and doesn’t harm Imperial Whitetail Clover, Alfa-Rack or other clover or alfalfa plantings.

Slay Broadleaf Herbicide is effective on most broadleaf weeds including: Chickweed, Ragweed, Dandelion, Thistles, Dock Weed, Smartweed, Henbit, and others. Important Note: Sure-Fire Sticker or some type of surfactant is required for effective use of Slay herbicide. Without a surfactant, Slay will be marginally effective at best.

Arrest

Arrest the Grasses in Your Food Plot

We stock both Pint and Gallon jugs

Arrest Herbicide was developed by Whitetail Institute to help control grasses found in a food plot. Grasses come in many forms: perennial and annual. Fescue, Johnson grass and foxtail are a few that commonly plague food plots. These grasses produce lots of seeds and are very aggressive, taking incredible amounts of moisture and nutrients away from desired forages. If not dealt with quickly, they can damage or destroy the plot. Applying Arrest before the grasses get out of control can clear virtually all of the grass out of the plot without damaging the stands of Imperial Whitetail Clover, Alfa-Rack, Alfa-Rack Plus or Extreme.

Arrest Grass Herbicide is effective on most grass types including Blue Stem, Orchardgrass, Bluegrass, Ryegrass, Bermuda, Switchgrass, Fescue, Timothy, Indiangrass, Crabgrass, Johnsongrass and others. Always follow the instructions on the label.

Sure-Fire Crop Oil

What is Surefire Seed Oil?

Surefire Seed Oil is a tank additive that helps the herbicide stick to the weeds which helps the herbicide penetrate the weed aggressively. The cost of adding Surefire Seed Oil to the Slay spray solution is less than $8 per acre.

Do I Need to Add Surefire Seed Oil to the Slay Spray Solution?

Yes! Slay is chemically different than Arrest. The addition of Surefire Seed Oil or a similar surfactant or crop oil concentrate is mandatory for Slay to work. If you spray Slay without adding Surefire Seed Oil or a similar crop oil concentrate or surfactant as directed, you could lose up to 90% of the effectiveness of Slay on broadleaf weeds. Add Surefire Seed Oil to the Slay spray solution at a rate of 1/2 pint of Surefire per acre.

Do I Need To Add Surefire Seed Oil To The Arrest Spray Solution?

In most cases, Arrest will work without adding Surefire Seed Oil. However, if the grass to be controlled has matured or is a perennial grass, adding Surefire to the Arrest solution is highly recommended to boost the effectiveness of Arrest. Add Surefire Seed Oil to the Arrest spray solution at a rate of .5 pint of Surefire per acre.
