Clover,, oh my Huny Coverr

Things You’ll Need:

• Rake
• Sawdust
• Milorganite
• Water
• Lawnmower (optional)

Instructor: 

• Step 1:
  Rake the soil thoroughly, scoring the surface for planting. If you wish to add clover to thicken an existing lawn, rake over the grass to improve seed contact.
• Step 2:
  Mix the clover seeds with sawdust, as they are extremely small and difficult to distribute evenly otherwise. Also add in Milorganite or another light fertilizer to this mix. Heavy fertilization will not help clover.
• Step 3:
  Spread the mix evenly over the areas of your lawn or the raked soil bed where you would like to plant the clover.
• Step 4:
  Water the soil, taking care not to wash away the seeds. Keep the soil moist at all times until the clover has taken root. This usually occurs two weeks after planting. After this point, do not water more than once a week.
• Step 5:
  Mow the clover or let it grow to its full height, which can be up to six inches, according to your preference. The clover seeds will flourish either way.
