This happens on my parents' lawn too. I don't understand though, if grass grows better than clover in nitrogen-rich soil, why doesn't the grass come back once the clover has replenished the nitrogen?
- mikekchar 8y agoIf you overseed with grass seed it will. Grass and clover makes a really nice sward. When I had a lawn (more than 10 years ago!), I eventually realised the beauty of this. Mix in camomile for an even lusher, softer lawn. Let it grow long enough for the clover and camomile to flower and it's amazing. The longer grown inhibits other weeds. It's practically maintenance free -- just run over it with a push mower every once in a while.
- bainsfather 8y agoOn farmland, the nitrogen from the clover reaches the grass after it has been eaten by sheep/cows and then excreted - either directly or by the farmer spreading manure.
