Right with ya, what I'm doing now. We have a tiny house on an 80'x200' lot and the back 30' was already left wild. LOL, now the whole backyard is an impassable mess. :)
I'm thinking clover next year if I can afford it. My 70s elementary playground was mostly clover and we beat the shit out of it, 3 times a day. (For you younger folks, "recess" was a time in the morning, at lunch and afternoon when we ran outside and did whatever the fuck we wanted.)
Ironically, they used to adulterate grass seed to clover to make it cheaper. Now we gotta pay a monstrous premium for clover seed. Go figure.
I have clover in an area where sometimes, maybe once-twice a week, a car parks. It doesn't hold at all, I've been re-sowing it many times, even tried growing it in pots and planting once it matured.
Sounds like I need to study on the different types of clover.
