I bought this seed as my husband and I were trying to buy a home because I've always wanted a clover lawn, but it took longer to actually get into a home than we thought. We finally got around to planting it early last fall, our new backyard was completely dirt so we fixed the sprinkler system, tilled it, raked it, then planted the seed and left it alone. We got almost no clover to grow, only weeds. It looks like we literally only planted weeds. So we are going to have to till again in the spring and find a different brand to go with because I obviously don't want weeds in my yard. This was a waste of time and money.

Planted in areas where dogs wear out the lawn. Great that it sprouted quickly. Not sure about coverage, but small patches working well so far

I'm in a new build neighborhood and I knew the builders were going to hydroseed with a grass mix that browns easily and isnt drought resistant. So I got a few bags to spread in the backyard. I literally just walked through the yard and threw it on the ground, I didn't use a seed spreader or anything and I actually didnt even have enough to spread on the whole yard. I had to water a lot at first for the grass seed that they had put down, so that might have helped it take. But a year later and the clover is basically the whole backyard, and it's plush and green even though I never water it. The clover seems to crowd out any other weeds, we don't have anything back there other than clover and some grass. I just wish I had done it in the front yard too! *It does have flowers! Some people want just the clover leaves and no flowers, this mix WILL flower!*

I haven't actually seen micro clover and didn't know what to expect. The clover that grew in the spots I planted looks like regularWild clover with the same size leaves and white flowers that grows anywhere. I was hoping for something more petite and tame looking but I will take this over a dry totally brown lawn.

This goes farther than you think and the seeds come up fast. I've bought several sized bags of this and each one has been great. The seed comes up every time. I know some reviews have said that hadn't happened for them, but maybe they weren't watering it? It's not soil quality because my soil is really really bad, unless their soil had something to prohibit plants from sprouting or was seriously contaminated. I have heavy clay soil that I did very little amending to and it came up fast and thick. That is the only drawback was I didn't expect it to come up so fast and it shaded out some of the grass seed I planted with it from sprouting, but that was my fault.

I purchased this seed to fill in some gaps of clover that we just planted a few weeks earlier from another store. In the gaps where this seed was placed, no seed has grown and it has been 7 days of constant sun and watering. Usually it starts to go within the first 3 days. The seeds we recieved appear to be duds. I would not recommend these seeds.

Introducing clover into my lawn has turned out to be a beneficial decision. Not only does it enhance the drought tolerance of the grass, but clover also acts as a natural nitrogen fixer, nourishing the grass and promoting healthier growth.The clover has started to sprout and intermingle nicely with my existing grass. I was hoping for a denser growth, but I am optimistic that this will improve over time.One crucial note for those considering a similar approach: these sprouts require diligent care during the initial growing phase. You need to keep them thoroughly wet and avoid walking or mowing over the area. I learned this the hard way, as I lost substantial sections due to early foot traffic. Once the clover establishes itself, however, it's resilient enough to handle walking with no problem.Adding clover to a grass lawn is an eco-friendly and effective way to boost the health and durability of your yard. Just remember to be patient and provide ample care in the early stages for the best results. Despite wishing for denser growth initially, I'm pleased with the progress so far and look forward to seeing how it develops in the future.

When I direct sowed in my lawn initially (mid April) germination was slow and low percentage. It was about two weeks before I could see tiny clovers.As a test, I planted some indoors in a pot by a sunny window. Fewer than half germinated. But in a second test, started in late April with fresh potting mix, I have had a much better germination rate. At least 90%. The photo shows how the shoots look after 5 days.I wish it weren’t so expensive

JULY 2019 UPDATE: We haven’t watered or put any chemicals on our lawn! I have uploaded a picture showing our clover mix lawn and what a pretty shade of green it is compared to the neighbors grass lawn. We still need to mow once a week, but now there are hardly any clover flowers. The grass still dies when the dogs pee on it, but the clover does not. I’m super curious to see what happens during the dryer months of the summer when the lawns all turn brown. I just moved my star rating from four to five stars. This really is one of the best decisions that we have ever made. I will update again during the drought months.JUNE 2019 Update: We LOVE our lawn! Yes, we are getting little white flowers, but we can mow them away. As of right now, we have not yet trained it to stay short. We are mowing as often as a regular lawn. BUT, the dog pee doesn’t kill this. The dog pee still kills the grass. We haven’t watered it once yet. We have little to NO other weeds. But that being said, I bought a weeding tool in early spring and hand popped out all the dandelions, crab/Johnson grass and broad leaf weeds, they haven’t come back. I will update again during the drought months.UPDATE March 9, 2019. The third picture you see is our lawn now. We are very happy with our decision to go green and stop pouring chemicals on our lawn. I must say that our lawn is way greener than any of our neighbors lawns. We bought another bag, but haven’t put it down yet. We are going to use it in a few spots that were missed last year. My husband told me to buy it before they ran out, so I did. So far we are just using this in our backyard where our puppies play and go potty. I will keep updating. I’m waiting for the summer drought before moving it up to five stars, but as of now I’m completely happy.We spent $3,000 for sod last May that all died despite a $400 water bill. Since we have two new puppies, we decided not to treat it with chemicals. Our last dog died of cancer at age six, so we refuse to put down chemical fertilizers. Then my husband told me about clover and I said, “absolutely not!” He asked me to just read the article and then think about it. After reading it, I agreed it would be the best way to have a green lawn and still be healthy for our puppies and the environment. In September we planted one five pound bag along of clover with two 40 pound bags of grass seed in our back yard which is about 75 wide by 75 deep and covered it with some tacky straw. The grass came up right away, but petered out. The clover started coming up within five days, but stayed small and sparse for about six weeks. Now it’s November and we have had a couple of freezes and it’s a pretty green. The neighbors lawns have all started to die off, as well as the field behind us. I will post pictures of the color difference. I look forward to seeing what will happen this winter and next spring as well as the summer drought. I will keep this updated, mainly because the older I get the less I remember, so I will be able to look back on this and know whether or not to buy some more.The first picture shows our lawn up close with zero chemicals and the neighbors lawn on the other side of the fence with his “professional “ lawn care. The second picture shows the field behind us has all died off. This past summer, our new sod was as brown as that field. What you see in our lawn is 95 percent clover and very little grass. In fact, the brown you see is the grass.FOR REFERENCE: We live in upper middle Tennessee where the “soil” is mostly red clay.
