<< I use many chemicals at
many times of the year to "unsuccessfully" control dandylions and
clover. >>
I can't tell whose comment this is, but my husband and I got a good chuckle
out of it.
I've heard that in days gone by, clover was a common part of grass seed mixes
because it provided the nitrogen that the grass needs, eliminating the
necessity of adding nitrogen. This sounds like a good practice to me, an
amateur, so what's happened to it? (Sorry if this was covered in another
post....I'm falling behind reading all these FASCINATING posts on fertilizing
and soil)
