Illicit™ Food Plot Seed

Sandy soil? Illicit is the perfect fall hunt plot for you and your soil.

So good it should be illegal.

Illicit Deer Radishes offer an easy to use, fast growing variety capable of producing up to 8 tons of forage per acre. The leafy greens provide premium forage during late summer and fall, while the sugar filled tap root delivers a powerful energy source after frost. Plant it as a stand alone plot at 6–8 lbs per acre or double the rate and broadcast into standing soybeans to create an absolute deer magnet.

Illicit has quickly become one of our favorite fall hunt plots across the country because of its rapid establishment, impressive soil tolerance and ability to attract deer regardless of weather or region. It thrives in sandy soils but performs exceptionally well across a wide range of soil types.

And it is not just great for deer. It is great for your dirt.

With deep reaching tap roots, Illicit tillage radish pulls nutrients up into the upper soil profile, breaks up compaction, improves water infiltration and adds valuable organic matter back into the ground. It is attraction and soil improvement all in one planting.

Easy to use. Fast growth. Serious attracting power. Illicit is a must have for your fall food plot program.
