Remove existing vegetation, weeds, and debris from the planting area. Prepare a firm, smooth seedbed by loosening the top 2–4 inches of soil. Apply lime and fertilizer based on a soil test for optimal establishment. Broadcast the seed evenly across the prepared soil using a hand or broadcast spreader. Lightly rake or cultipack the seed into the soil, covering it no more than 1/8–1/4 inch deep. Chicory seed should not be planted deeply. Plant when adequate soil moisture is available or before a forecasted rainfall. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings are well established. Growing Tips Performs best in well-drained soils with a soil pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Avoid planting too deeply, as shallow planting improves germination. Mow periodically to encourage fresh, tender forage growth and reduce weed competition. Fertilize as recommended by a soil test to maximize forage production. Follow the seeding rate on the product packaging for your specific planting area. Whether you're creating a new food plot or improving an existing one, Pennington Top Choice Chicory Plus Mix delivers dependable, high-quality forage that helps attract deer while supporting a healthier wildlife habitat year after year.
