Fast shipping, excellent communication. 2nd order from these fellas. Product was what we expected and has already been planted. Much thanks!
My delivered package of RC Big Rock consisted of pure seed, containing no inert material as visible through the clear plastic container. This was my second purchase from TnT and won't be my last!
It’s been super dry here in Illinois so I’m sure we didn’t get the growth we were supposed to out of this mix. Customer service is awesome. Quality of the seed has always been great.
I planted this for the first year in a 2 acre plot and the deer love it!! Sat on plot opening day of bow in northern Michigan and had 17 deer out there.
Planted on bare ground with light rain afterwards. The switchgrass i planted is doing great but the Milo is disappointing. Not much has come up
Only came up about 4 inches and is not very think. Not sure if that is what it’s supposed to do but not very impressed
Thanks for the feedback. Switchgrass is a perennial and takes 2–3 years to fully mature, so growth after only a couple of months isn’t representative of the finished stand. Weed competition can also greatly affect first-year growth and thickness. Please feel free to reach out to us with pictures or questions and we’d be happy to help you out!
Im very impressed with tnts barrier blend. I planted mine May 30th in Illinois and by August 2nd its 10-11 feet tall. Its fast growing and super easy to plant. Its thicker then any any other "barrier" I've planted
