So I bought some wildflower mixture, and they recommend to thin/blend with sand so you can see where you broadcast and go see it easier. So I took one step further and added clover as well.

I have 2 wildflower mixes, 10gs of each, I know it’s probably not enough to get a dense lawn, but that’s also why I thinned it clover that I’ve already started turning the lawn over to.

So I took about 1/2 of one of wildflower packets and mixed it with 1 scoop of clover seed and 5 scoops of play sand. Gonna broadcast my entire front lawn, ther grass isn’t too tall yet, although I should mow to the lowest setting first.

Anyways follow along for updates on this adventure!

    Thank you! They recommend a tilled bed, like give you 3 different ways to prep depending on weeks in advance -.-

    No reason why the grass can’t shade some of these to start going while the thatch hides the seeds.

    I’m fairly confident, I overseeded my backyard with clover and grass last year and the clover took fantastically. Even if the the clover just takes, it won’t be a loss.
