I planted Whitetail institute Clover/Chicory in May. Its extremely slow growing now and the weeds are choking them out. I have mowed twice so far....approximately 5-6 inches and weeds are starting to thin out and clover looks to be dominate.

I plan on mowing until the clover reaches the point of overpowering the weeds. Its a good idea to walk through and hand pluck the weeds as well.

Mine are looking champion style so far and look forward to doing the mowing about every 3rd week if neccessary. just dont mow too low...to early. The later the year...and higher growth of clover will allow you to bush hog at a higher length. Just be sure to choke the weeds out! That about as low as you need to go while the clover grows.
