Strut10 Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 How many lbs/acre of 19-19-19 would you think I'd need to spread just as a maintainence "booster" application on my clover plot?? It was planted last spring, so the roots are well established. I don't suppose 19-19-19 is the optimum stuff for the job. But it's what I've got.

wtnhunt Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 Re: Fertilizing clover I go with 250 lbs per acre of 6-12-12 in the spring here. Bet you might get away with a little less using the triple 19. Might try 200 lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 Re: Fertilizing clover Will most likely increase weeds or promote invasive weed and grass growth. The clovers dont need Nitrogen, they make their own. Always try to use the lowest first number fertilizer you can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
