Planting Aids for your Seed

What is the Green Screen Food Plot Screen?

This annual mix grows fast and full—rising up to 14 feet tall—to form a living wall wherever you need one.
Use it to divide fields, shield driveways, or block road views. Create windbreaks for livestock, privacy for your property, or protected pathways for wildlife. With a little planning, Green Screen can transform open ground into organized space—naturally.
Hunters love it for its cover, farmers for its function, and landowners for how effortlessly it shapes the landscape. It’s beauty and purpose in a single bag of seed. Green Screen® combines robust annual species that thrive in warm weather and dense planting. Once established, it forms a thick, upright barrier that holds strong through the season—even under tough conditions. Come winter, deer and other wildlife often turn to it for cover and feed.

Wildlife-Friendly Habitat

This sorghum blend isn’t just for screening—it’s also a magnet for wildlife. The thick stalks and leafy canopy provide essential cover for deer, turkeys, and upland birds, making your property more inviting and secure for game animals throughout the year.

Easy to Plant and Maintain

Easy to Plant and Maintain

Green Screen is an ideal choice for both beginners and experienced land managers. Sorghum is known for its adaptability and low maintenance requirements. Plant it in a variety of soil types, and enjoy robust growth with minimal fuss—no green thumb required.

Fast-Growing and Resilient

Time is of the essence when you need screening fast. Our Green Screen blend features sorghum for its rapid growth rate and impressive height, reaching up to 8–12 feet in a single season. Plus, it stands up to wind, rain, and even light grazing pressure.

Soil Health Booster

Beyond its screening benefits, sorghum is a soil-friendly crop. Its deep root system helps prevent erosion, improves soil structure, and can add valuable organic matter back into your land. It’s a practical and sustainable choice for long-term land stewardship.

Planting and Growth Guide

Best Time to Plant

Best Time to Plant

Plant Green Screen Food Plot Screen after your region’s last frost date, when soil temperatures reach at least 60°F. This ensures rapid germination and robust early growth, giving your sorghum the head start it needs to outcompete weeds and withstand summer heat.

Seedbed Preparation

A firm, weed-free seedbed is key for successful establishment. Lightly till or disk the soil to create a fine, even surface, then pack it to ensure good seed-to-soil contact. Removing debris and previous crop residue will help your sorghum thrive from day one.

Seeding Rate and Depth

Broadcast or drill Green Screen at a rate of 8–12 pounds per acre, planting seeds ½ to 1 inch deep. Even distribution is important—avoid burying seeds too deep, as sorghum prefers shallow planting for optimal emergence.

Watering and Early Care

Green Screen is drought-tolerant, but consistent moisture during the first few weeks is crucial for strong root development. If rainfall is light, supplement with irrigation to keep the soil evenly moist until seedlings are well established.
