Planting Instructions:

When to Sow this Mixture: Spring and Early or Late Summer is the best time to seed. Avoid seeding the hotter parts of the summer or extremely hot days.

How to Sow: Remove all existing growth and sow evenly over the area. We suggest compressing for a good seed to soil contact without pushing the seeds beneath the soil. Keep watered and moist until the seedlings are about 4 inches high and then watering can be reduced.

How to Maintain: Clover does not need fertilizer. Clover acts as a green fertilizer if trimmed and is a great for aeration as the roots work into the soil. It is also a great nitrogen booster. Mow once in mid-summer and once about 4-6 weeks before the first fall frost. Do not use herbicides. Purchase a bit extra seed of this mix to fill in any sparse areas that may occur.
