Primary Usage | Chicory thrives in dry, hot weather and also becomes very palatable at that point. When your clovers go dormant in the hot, dry weather, chicory keeps a nutritious food source available. Chicory can also be a great attractor for hunting season. |
Soil Type | Will grow in all soil types pending adequate soil moisture is available. Does well in dryer areas where some clovers are hard to establish. |
When to Plant | Northern Regions: All additives should be planted in early spring to allow root systems to develop prior to hot weather. Brassicas may also be planted in late summer or early fall; allow 30 – 60 days of growth prior to a frost. |
