    • Choose a planting location: Mammoth Red Clover prefers well-draining soil and can tolerate a range of soil types, though it prefers slightly acidic soil. It also prefers full sun to partial shade. If you're planting as a cover crop, consider planting in the fall for better growth.

    • Prepare the soil: Till the soil to a depth of 4 to 6 inches and remove any weeds or debris. If you're planting as a cover crop, consider adding nitrogen-rich fertilizers to the soil.

    • Sow the seeds: Mammoth Red Clover can be sown by hand or using a seed spreader. Sow the seeds at a rate of 10-15 pounds per acre, or 1-2 pounds per 1000 square feet. Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil, no more than 1/4 inch deep. If you're planting as a cover crop, mix the seeds with soil, sand, or sawdust to aid in even distribution.

    • Water regularly: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Mammoth Red Clover requires consistent moisture for optimal growth.

    • Fertilize sparingly: Mammoth Red Clover doesn't require heavy fertilization, but you can apply a balanced fertilizer once or twice during the growing season to promote healthy growth.
