There’s no denying the powerful attraction of clover for hungry whitetails and wild turkeys! After years of research, we have finally developed one of the easiest-to-grow, most nutritious, clover blends on the market. BioLogic’s Non-Typical Clover ™, is our exclusive large-leaf white clover variety available only from Mossy Oak BioLogic. This clover planting has been extensively tested and chosen for its proven durability, nutrition, and attraction. Recent field trials have shown that Non-Typical Clover ™ has a track record of quick stand establishment, aggressive stolon (stem) growth, heavy forage output, and long-term stand persistence. Non-Typical Clover can perform for 3-5 years with proper management including mowing, fertilization according to soil tests, and weed control with herbicides.
How to Plant Non-Typical Clover:
Non-Typical Clover is best planted by spreading on a well-prepared seedbed at 8 lbs. per acre, then using a cultipacker to cover the seed. Broadcasting on a well-prepared seedbed just prior to rain also produces an excellent stand — the rain serves to bury the seed at the appropriate depth (1/4 inch) and ensures adequate soil moisture for germination. 4 lbs. per acre is recommended for existing perennial stands.
When to Plant Non-Typical Clover:
In the south, plant Non-Typical Clover in early fall, as soon as soil moisture is sufficient for seed germination. Spring planting isn’t recommended; frequent summer drought conditions could limit root growth. In the north, plant Non-Typical Clover in the spring when the soil temperature is 50° or higher and soil moisture is sufficient. Fall planting isn’t recommended; frost may occur before root systems are established. This blend can also be frost-seeded in the spring.
