Frost seeding is done in early spring when the night temperatures still get below freezing. Freezing creates little pockets in the soil surface for clover seed to work its way into. Then the daily thaws will cover the seed just enough.

Fertilizing can be done anytime, but is best done prior to planting. What the clover really wants is the phosphorus and potassium. But these don'tleech into the soil like nitrogen does, and should be disked into the top 4 - 6 inches. Same is true for Lime. Get fertilizer with the highest phosphorus and potassium numbers, and lowest Nitrogen number you can. 0-0-60 for a potassium(potash) is great.

Mow 3 to 5 times per summer, 6-8 inches high, before a good rain. Avoid cutting during a drought.
