Well, I'm not sure that's how to do it right. I've over seeded it also
and not had great results. I really think that the ph change was a big
help for the clover. the first planting was pretty poor. I think that
planting in the spring in my climate is not as good as planting in the
fall. Also, last summers drought was followed by a near perfect fall
as far as rainfall. From late August on, it rained regularly.
