Clover seed, Irradiated clover, or extra terrestrial life form hell bent on destruction?
I bought 5 lbs of this "mini clover" to overseed an approximately 7000 Sq. Foot lawn. Within a few days, sprouts began to appear all over my yard which had me very excited, I didn't expect to see results so quickly. A few more days lead to an uncountable amount of little green shoots protruding from my lawn. A few more days however... nothing. The sprouts seemed to go dormant, halted at about half inch tall.
Being the optimist I am, I persisted in my regiment of lightly misting my lawn a couple times a day. After another week or so I noticed what started to grow resembled nothing of a clover, maybe one which had been doused in tremendous amounts of radiation perhaps, but certainly not your typical clover. These abominations have now taken over my lawn. It's like an army of multi appendaged clover of extra terrestrial decent have embarked on a mission to annihilate the few real "miniclover" that actually have sprouted. The war rages and every day the earth clover numbers diminish as the insurgency only grows stronger. I swear on a very quiet night I hear chants and chatter. Are they planning on expanding their conquest? We can only hope for earth's sake that they are satusfied with not only the total destruction of my lawn but also the 100 bucks that I wasted.
That said, I do not believe this seed is clover, it is a hideous weed that is completely taking over l, every where I sowed seed. I would not recommend this seed.
