CHECKMATE
Extremely Leafy All-Brassica Blend

High protein, high tonnage; ultra cold and grazing tolerant

This all-season brassica blend features six brassicas that combine to give you both lots of leafy greens and lots of bulbs as well, so you get the best of both worlds. Thanks to the high tonnage, it is extremely grazing tolerant. Checkmate provides lots of protein and is extremely cold tolerant, too. And, with six different brassica seed varieties there is sure to always be something for your deer to eat, from early season (thanks to the fast and easy growing varieties) to when the cold weather hits (thanks to winter hardy Forage Kale). Checkmate is also a great soil building food plot blend.

  1. Purple Top Turnips - Easy-to-grow softball size soil builder; we’ve seen this germinate in the back of a truck
  2. Ethiopian Cabbage - Grows fast (germinates in just 45 days) and has a deep tap root so very drought tolerant
  3. 7-Top Turnips (we are the first to have it) - Super leafy and crazy tall so lots of green leafy yield; very nutrient dense
  4. Giant Rapeseed - Early maturing so deer are attracted early; a high yield tasty treat
  5. Forage Kale - The best cold weather brassica, very winter hardy ; also very high yield
  6. Hybrid Brassica - High energy, highly sought leafy brassica that actually has no bulbs
