Red clover is a short-lived (2-5 years) tap-rooted perennial legume that fixes 100-150 lb Nitrogen per year, mobilizes soil phosphorus and penetrates hardpan.
Growing red clover + grass for one to three years restores soil that has become "tired" from intensive cultivation, building organic matter, tilth and fertility while suppressing weeds. Clover can also be overseeded into corn, vegetables or row crops when the latter are at mid-growth.
Current stock is inoculated with Nitragin Gold an OMRI Listed inoculant coating.
Also available in a 1 lb Bag
Plant red clover 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep in early spring or late summer at 10-15 lb/ac (4-6 oz/1,000 sq ft), with oats at 40-50 lb/ac (1 lb/1,000 sq ft) and (optionally) ryegrass, orchardgrass or timothy at half the normal recommended rate.
Handlers certificates and available from the seedhouse we purchase our organically grown seed from. Once you purchase the seed, refer to the bag label for the seedhouse, then search their web site for their handlers certificate. We recommend that you also save your seed label as you will need it for your certifying agency inspection. We also have some handlers certificates under our Resource page.
