Red Clover COVER CROP 114 g

(biennial): (Trifolium pratense) Rapid growing green manure crop sown in the spring or fall for turndown to incorporate organic nitrogen into the soil. If sown in summer use buckwheat as a nurse crop to aid germination of clover in summer heat. The clover will grow slowly under the buckwheat until fall frost kills the buckwheat and allows the clover to establish quickly. This method eliminates fall tilling. One-half pound sows 1000 sq. ft. Pkt. (1/4 lb.)
