Buckwheat, contrary to its name, is not related to wheat at all, and in fact is not even a grass. The species is actually more closely related to rhubarb, although we do not at all encourage using Hancock's particular variety of Buckwheat for home cooking.

Buckwheat grows best in soils with light to medium texture, good drainage and will tolerate moderately acidic soils. It is reportedly tolerant of poorly drained soils, but should be avoided on heavy or droughty soils. Buckwheat is planted in the northeastern United States and Canada in the summer, and in the southeastern United States in early spring or fall. Buckwheat can germinate and grow in temperatures as low as 45 degrees but optimal growth occurs at or above 55 degrees. Buckwheat is frost sensitive and does not survive even light frosts.

Buckwheat should be planted at least 60 days before the first expected frost date or before the hot and dry season. A well-sown buckwheat will out-compete weeds. Buckwheat is also seldom damaged by insects or diseases. For this reason, buckwheat has no registered pesticides or herbicides. Buckwheat can be included in cover crop mixes with cow peas, soybeans, sunn hemp, or other warm season annuals. Buckwheat will being to flower within 3 to 6 weeks after planting and flower continuously for several weeks. Buckwheat grown for beneficial bugs should be allowed to flower for at least 20 days.

~~~

Buckwheat seed will thrive in any one of the three climate zones, when planted during the Spring or Summer. Seed at a rate of 70 lbs. per acre when broadcasting, or 50 lbs. per acre when drilling, and fertilize at a rate of 250 to 300 lbs. per acre with a suitable fertilizer. Cover seed at a depth of half-an-inch to one inch. Buckwheat performs best when soil is at a pH of 5.0 to 6.5. Be sure to do a soil test before planting and treat accordingly.

Buckwheat Seed will grow for 10 to 12 weeks, and will grow to a height of up to 30 to 50 inches. 

Buckwheat produces a white flower, which makes it a reasonable addition to large flowerbeds, for both aesthetic and soil health purposes. The flowers are popular among bees and other beneficial bugs, providing an extra benefit for the local ecosystem when planted.

Great ball!
Color: Ultra, Size: Large
Our puppy loves this ball. It has held up well so far, it’s about 2 weeks now of large breed pup play. It’s been outside for the last week, rain or shine, still in working order. Not as big as I thought it would be though. No squeak, bounces well. Thick rubber like material, that can be depressed when biting down.

Durable, even for a Great Dane!
Color: Ultra, Size: XXL
I've bought many tennis ball sized ChuckIt balls in the past (for medium sized dogs we've owned), so when we knew we were going to be babysitting our daughter's Great Dane, I bought a bigger one for her. The 4" is perfect for her! She plays catch with it, but also likes to gnaw on it. It holds up great!

Another great product from Chuckit!
Color: Ultra, Size: XL
Exactly the high quality that I've come to expect from Chuckit! The plastic/rubber used in their products is extremely tough yet gives enough that it's hard to actually pierce the it and tear apart. We have had Chuckit! Sticks and Balls with launcher for years and love them all. This particular ball is pretty big so my 45 pound pit mix struggles to pick it up but that's part of the fun for him. My 85 pound pit mix can pick it up no problem. The only "complaint" is that the two of them have been having so much fun with their new ball, they have already knocked something over and broke it. 😁

Perfect for my mid size pit bull
Color: Ultra, Size: XL
Updating my review, the ball only lasted 5 days. I left the 5 stars because we had enough fun those 5 days to be worth the small price. She has dog has a lot of jaw strength, so I’m not surprised We have a mid size foster pit bull. This ball is her favorite toy. It’s durable and the perfect size for her to play ball safely.
