This may seem like a dumb question, but then I'm new to this food plot stuff. When you sow a mixture of clover, like crimson, arrowleaf, ladino, etc., is it best to blend the seeds together and then sow them, or is it best to sow them individually?

My experience has been that they work fine together. Dollar for dollar ladino is your best buy. I have ladino that has been around for a few years and it's the only clover surviving the drought on my farm. Just my 2 cents.

Soe them together. The big question is, do you want a perennial plot or an annual plot? Now that doesn't mean you can't plant both together, but white and red clovers are perennials, while crimson and arrowleaf are annuals.

Together and blended with Ladino blends. I would recommend Advangage blended with Durana and patriot crimson etc. The durana is an excellent New clover and you can go to Penningtons website and read about it. Alot of guys on this website can recommend others they have had personal experience with and great success with.
vince.
