Fill your late-season stand with steady traffic using Whitetail Institute Imperial Wintergreens food plot seed. Pull deer when natural browse is gone and frosts sweeten the leaf. Rely on a rugged brassica mix that keeps its height, handles hard freezes, and stays attractive long after other plots fade.

Key Features

• Late-season draw: Attract deer after frost when sugars peak and pressure is highest.
• Cold hardy: Hold a standing food source through snow and prolonged freezes.
• Drought tolerant: Establish a dependable plot even when rainfall is uneven.
• Stands tall: Keep foliage visible so deer can find it when cover turns bare.
• Packable size: Carry the 3 lb bag into remote clearings without extra bulk.

Applications

Plant a destination plot for bitter-cold evenings, or tuck a small backwoods kill plot near bedding to shorten travel time. Work up a firm seedbed, plant ahead of fall rains, and give the mix full sun for best tonnage. Time seeding to your region so plants hit peak palatability right as temperatures drop.

Specifications

• Type: Annual, cool-season brassica blend (WINA)
• Primary Use: Late-season deer attraction and nutrition
• Planting Window: Late summer to early fall, region dependent
• Bag Weight: 3 lb (easy to haul to remote plots)

Test your soil, add lime and fertilizer as needed, and avoid overseeding to prevent crowding. Keep weeds down early so the stand can take over and carry your hunt through the cold.
