Wicked Tuff Turf Brassica Seed

Want a food plot that keeps feeding deer all winter — and improves your soil while it does? This all-in-one brassica blend does both, in a single planting.

Old Cobblers Farm™ Wicked Tuff Turf Brassica Blend is a forage brassica mix combining turnip, rape, kale, and radish. “Forage” simply means a crop grown to be eaten by animals — here, deer, cattle, sheep, and goats. Because each species in the blend matures at a different time, the plot gives you continuous feed: rape and radish bring early-fall greens, kale stays leafy through snow, and turnip bulbs store energy underground for late-winter grazing.

The mix does double duty below ground. Radish sends down a deep taproot that breaks up hardpan (the hard, compacted layer that blocks water and roots) and “scavenges” nitrogen — pulling leftover nitrogen up from deep soil so it isn’t lost to runoff. Brassicas also contribute biofumigation, a natural process where decomposing brassica tissue helps suppress some soil pests. The result is a more resilient plot than any single species alone.

Key Benefits

-Continuous forage: staggered maturity keeps the plot productive from early fall through deep winter.

-Maximum wildlife draw: varied leaves, stems, and roots offer a buffet that keeps deer and game coming back.

-Breaks compaction: deep radish taproots open hardpan and improve drainage — a natural “biological plow.”

-Cold hardiness: kale and turnips stay palatable and nutrient-dense after hard frosts.

-Soil health bonus: nitrogen scavenging and fast canopy closure cut nutrient loss and weeds.

Best Uses

Important Notes

•     ⚠ Agricultural forage blend, NOT a residential lawn or garden: this mix is grown for wildlife and livestock forage and soil improvement, not as backyard turf.

•     Seed only — not a fertilizer.

•     Rotate brassica plantings between seasons to prevent brassica disease buildup.
