Folic acid (Vitamin B9), also known as folate, functions as a coenzyme during the synthesis of genetic material (DNA). It is also a vital component for cellular division, and the normal growth, development, function, and reproduction of all cells.Folic acid plays a role in all processes that depend on cell division.ymptoms of folic acid (vitamin B9) deficiency include anemia and mood disorders. Low levels of folic acid may contribute to depression, possibly because of a resulting lowering of neurotransmitter levels.
If you plant it then, do it at least six weeks before the first heavy freeze. If freezing temperatures are rare in your climate, you can plan it any time in the winter. Dutch white clover )Trifolium repens) will grow in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 4a through 9b.
Waiting for Bloom. How long you have to wait for clover to bloom depends on when you put down seed or when it does so naturally on its own. If you seed white clover in spring, for instance, you will see flowers that year. If, however, you seed it as a cover crop in late fall, you will have to wait until spring of the following year to see seeds, which would take several more months.
