SKU: N/A Category: Food Plots

HONEY HOLE is a mixture of 5 unique varieties of brassicas, which include 3 varieties of rape, and 2 varieties of turnips. This awesome Hunt Plot is an ideal plot for the fall and winter. After the first frost the plants go from bitter to sweet and the deer love them!!  Because these plants will thrive with little or no tilling, anyone can create their own “HONEY HOLE.”

WHY HONEY HOLE?  Planted in the Spring, Summer or early Fall the plant varieties in Honey Hole will mature in 60-90 days and provide the whole deer family the PERFECT Fall and Winter food source.  The plant varieties that make up Honey Hole are easy to use, establish fast and grow quickly…while a 6.0-7.0 pH is preferred Honey Hole can grow in a wide variety of soil conditions and is a little more tolerant to soil acidity than some food plot mixes.  Deer will begin to consume the leafy greens as the plants begin to grow and mature, but once the weather turns cold and the plants are impacted by a hard killing frost or multiple hard frosts a molecular change occurs…this dramatic change triggers plant maturity and allows the plants to convert their stored up starches into sweet sugars.  This change increases consumption and deer will flock to your Honey Hole plot to consume the sweet tasting sugary plants providing an extremely palatable, highly digestible energy source the deer need for survival.   The hand picked plant varieties in Honey Hole make it the best Fall and Winter hunt plot available and is the foundation of any late season food plot and deer management program.

NUTRITION:  Once established the leafy greens in this Brassica mixture will provide 16-22% protein and the bulbs in both turnip varieties slightly less protein.  As the weather turns cold and the molecular change helps convert the starch to sugar these Brassicas will provide 4% gross energy (equivalent to corn).  The benefit to Honey Hole over corn is that it provides the same amount of highly sought after energy in the Fall and Winter, but is much easier for a ruminant animal like a deer to digest as 60-90% of the turnip plant is digestible. When the weather turns cold deer seek what they need to survive and Honey Hole provides the vital food sources deer seek the most!  Create your Honey Hole today!

  1. Steve Horner – March 8, 2020

    Great Product Turnips got to size of softballs the first freeze the deer started to tear them up. easy to use the orange coating on seed was easy to see when broadcasting

    • Robie Pruitt – July 4, 2020

      Honey Hole is a great cold season food source

  2. Jerry Kasinec – July 3, 2020

    Thinking of trying Honey Hole

  3. QUINN – August 26, 2020

    Of the seeds that I have planted so far, this is by far and away the best producing mix. Had seeds survive a drought and last in the soil for nearly a year, germinated, and produced softball size turnips. The diameter of the plant is over 24″. Not only did it tolerate sandy and not ideal soil conditions, it thrived. I was a bit worried about the deer not eating it since its first time I’ve introduced brassicas to my property, but they have been eating them all through the summer. Cant wait til Fall when they’re even more desirable. Well done AK

  4. daron smith – December 28, 2020

    I planted my first plots in Antler King Honey Hole since Steve Bartylla talks so highly of it. I planted four of my ten plots in it this year 2020. It was used to some extent before it got really cold but once it got down to below 32 degrees the deer started hammering it. And in December it pulled so many doe and big bucks in. On Christmas Eve I shot the biggest buck of my life with a muzzle loader. Just 50 yards in front of my stand. His name was “The Beast” and I had to wait five minutes for him to finally lift his head from eating the Honey Hole turnips and turn broad side. I’m sold!!!

    The Beast has about 25 points, he is a non typical with drop tines and im told he may be in contention for the Nebraska Muzzle loader record. Id share photos if I could…

      Congratulations Daron!! I’m so glad this worked out for you, your statement about Honey Hole is dead on with what it was designed to do.

  5. Peter Thies – February 4, 2021

    Was the first time using this product last year. Unfortunately, in my neck of the woods we experienced a drought. The plants that did survive grew enough to produce enough that the deer still ate the plants to the ground. Walking through the plot late season with inches of snow on top the deer are still trying to dig up the turnips. I would defiantly recommend this product to anyone wanting to create an awesome kill plot!

  6. jeff mussolino – March 2, 2021

    I like what I am hearing. I want to plant this on my farms in illinois. Do I need to turn the ground over when I plant this seed?

    • Robie Pruitt – March 2, 2021

      Jeff this is a great product, Honey Hole can be used as a minimum tillage application but the better you can work your soil the better results you will receive, the key factor is seed to soil contact
