Sunn Hemp is a rapidly establishing legume that when grown as a summer annual can produce over 5,000 pounds of biomass and over 100 pounds of nitrogen per acre. Food plotters only need 8 to 12 weeks of frost-free growth conditions to receive these results. Plant Whitetail Institute's Sunn Hemp cover crop when soil temps reach 65 degrees. Sunn Hemp for deer food plots is adapted to a wide range of soils, but it grows best on well-drained soils with a pH from 5.5 to 7.5. It provides the benefits of a cover crop such as erosion control, soil improvement, plus suppression of root-knot nematodes. Sunn Hemp is an excellent summer rotation crop following a fall/winter brassica food plot such as Winter-Greens, Beets & Greens, Tall Tine Tubers or even Pure Attraction. Under proper soil conditions and adequate rainfall, Sunn Hemp can reach 8-12 feet in southern regions and 4-6 feet in the northern regions of the US. Sunn Hemp is also Arrest Max approved!

I've planted almost everything you offer and this past spring I planted the Sunn Hemp. The plants got a quick start and the deer were in it every day but it kept growing, even with heavy grazing. We cut it down on Labor Day weekend to plant the new Visoin which is awesome. i'll review that after the season.
