How to Plant:
Chufas are best planted by preparing a firm seedbed by disking. Then broadcast the seed at a rate of 40 pounds per acre. The seed should be covered approximately 1" deep, and this can be accomplished with a cultipacker or by carefully using a disk to cover them.
When to Plant:
Plant BioLogic Chufa in the spring when all danger of frost has passed. Chufas need 90-110 days of frost free growth to fully mature.
Management Tips:
BioLogic recommends that you plant BioLogic Chufa every year, but it is possible to get a decent volunteer stand from the previous year's crop if the turkeys have not consumed all the tubers. If you have enough chufa left in the field, you can spread 300 pounds of pHFertilizer per acre, thouroughly disk to incorporate the fertilizer and distribute the chufa seed. We also recommend that you rotate your plots every few years to prevent soil pests. BioLogic Clover Plus makes an excellent rotational crop for chufas and helps to add nitrogen back to the soil. Weed control is critcal to success and several selective herbicides can help control weed issues. As always, read and follow label directions.
