I've got big patches of Clover (White Flowers) on the lawn. I know a certain amount of Clover is recommended by some people - but mine seems to be getting out of control.
Someone recommended careful application of vinegar to the clover leaves (trying to not get the grass). Is that total lunacy - or well founded advice?
Or - if anyone has other tips - it would much appreciated.
Vinegar is highly acidic. So if you spray acid on a plant, it will usually die.
Clover is a sign of low nitrogen. Wherever you more clover than you want, toss out some fertilizer. That will encourage the grass to beat out the clover!
you say "tin pot dictator" like it is a bad thing!
