Product Description
TALL TINES TUBERS is designed to provide deer with two food sources (forage and tubers) for late fall through winter.
The turnip variety in TALL TINES TUBERS is not just another commodity-type seed turnip. Commodity type seeds often packaged as food plot products for deer were developed for grazing by livestock or for harvest. These types of turnips aren’t always attractive to deer so we developed our own variety.
Unlike commodity-seed type turnips, TALL TINES TUBERS is the only tuber variety specifically developed for whitetail deer food plots. The new turnip variety in TALL TINES TUBERS was developed over six years of exhaustive research, development and testing under real-world conditions on wild, free-ranging deer across the United States and Canada to be sure it would be as productive and attractive to deer as possible.
Research and development started with identifying specific traits that would make the new turnip variety ideal for whitetail food plots which include rapid stand establishment, cold tolerance and attractiveness to whitetails.
| In developing TALL TINES TUBERS, candidate turnips were planted in plots available to wild deer and then closely monitored for deer usage. The plants that deer exhibited a marked preference for were isolated from further grazing with exclusion cages, allowing those plants to mature and produce seed. Exclusion cages allowed continuing evaluation of other traits important for deer food plots including rapid stand establishment, early plant vigor and resistance to disease, insects, heat, drought and cold. Plants that did not meet the Institute’s strict testing requirements were eliminated at each selection cycle.
Tests on wild deer proved to the Whitetail Institute’s Research and Development Team and to the Institute’s Certified Research Stations across North America that their efforts had created the most productive, attractive, and cold-tolerant turnip product possible. After six years of exhaustive research, development and testing, TALL TINES TUBERS met all the Institute’s strict requirements and is now available to the public.
TALL TINES TUBERS is only available in Whitetail Institute products. Are you looking for a late season food plot that is hearty and extremely attractive to deer? You’ve found it with TALL TINE TUBERS! |
