INITIAL SEASON OF CLOVER

The growth for the first season of sweet clover is similar in quality to alfalfa and may be pastured from midseason to close, but not so close as to injure the plants. In the second season the growth is coarser and if used for hay should be cut before reaching 30 inches. Leave a high stubble as the second growth starts from buds on the cut stems. Do not cut too close or a second growth will not develop. Hay should be cured in the windrow or shock to reduce leaf loss and avoid overly rapid curing.
