These assorted annuals and perennials provide all the necessary ingredients for one – or several - productive micro-plot(s).  The total area this kit will plant is roughly 1,800 square feet.  Each 4-ounce bottle can be expected to comfortably cover up to 300 square feet (some sites might dictate a “thicker” seed rate, others “thinner”).  Though you can broadcast your annuals, it is recommended that they be planted in their own rows throughout the perennial “base”.  Planting the annuals in rows allows you to better maintain the perennials (mowing, weeding, raking, etc.) and monitor how each blend germinated and matured.  Planting your annuals in rows also allows the micro-plotter to more easily observe which blend the deer prefer at a given stage of development/growth and at what time of year.
