Clover is a very small seed, what is the smallest opening for seed?

You can make the opening almost any size you wish. You adjust the openings through which the seed falls by sliding one "plate" over another...this is done with a manual setting at the top of the handle...so you can make the width of the openings any size you want, as small as you want. The length of the openings remains constant, about an inch or so. I am not familiar with clover seed but I think the spreader should be able to do what you are looking for.

the openings (there are 3 of them) are infinitely adjustable. I havnt tried any small light weight seeds in mine but it works like gang busters on weed-n-feed, insect control, and fertilizer. Much, much, much better than the cheep plastic ones you get at Lowes or home depot.

The spreader has infinite settings between being fully closed and fully open. You will be able to crack it open just enough to let clover seed slowly flow out.

No, they are graduated in size. This is helpful if you are sprouting tiny seeds (like alfalfa). Start with the smallest size. As they grow larger, it helps to switch to the next larger size, etc. Makes the draining go a lot faster and gets rid of seed shells, without losing the actual sprouts down the drain. And if sprouting a larger seed (say an adzuki bean) you can just start with a larger lid. Hope that helps.

Hey Burrel, I just purchased the seed myself and have not been able to see how it is going to respond yet. Good luck!

I planted some around a new, small spruce, and the clover is doing well. In my experience with lawns, clover seems to do okay anywhere grass will grow.

No all three lids have different size holes to be used with different size seeds. I have only used the smallest holes for clover and it worked fine. Would think the larger size holes would also work fine for the larger size seeds.

Take a small zip lock bag. Fold it in half and then again. That is the size, these are small seeds.

The top opens exactly the same way as the bottom, by twisting it or the seed cage in opposite directions. If you are having a hard time, it is because it is stuck. I had the same problem. Empty any seed inside, then turn it so you can see what you are doing and try again. If it won't come loose, put a little oil (vegetable oil probably would be best) on the parts that won't loosen and try again. If necessary, give the top a gentle tap on a hard surface to jar it loose. -- When you put it back together, be sure to avoid twisting it too tightly.

This is the smaller version of the large squirrel buster and works very well in keeping undesirable birds and squirrels from the seeds. Because it is smaller you will wind up filling it up more often than the larger model.

For small seeds I used about five or six and two for big seeds. I ended up with more than one sprout per hole so I cut the tops off second third and forth plants.

You will have to scrape the moss up to bare soil and scratch rake the soil before sprinkling the clover seed,Good Luck.

Since I don't have the seed packets anymore...I cannot honestly answer this question.

This is a plastic container with metal caps. It only opens at the top. You pour the seed into the center hole that connects the two chambers.

Only one type of seed -- we are loving this item. Because it is squirrel proof, the food does last a lot longer. We have 2 of these and fill them every 10 days.

The smallest piece is the red raspberries. They are in a cluster that is about an inch and 1/2 in diameter.

I used it to spread some fine native seed that was maybe .030" diameter by about 3/16" long. You just have to adjust the feed slot down and spin faster and walk faster.

Hi there, this is Lisa, I am the owner of Zziggysgal. A method that I like best, is to poke several holes, spaced at least 1-2 inches apart, and place 1-3 seeds in each.
