Clover is a legume, which are plants that form symbiotic relationships with Nitrogen fixing bacteria. They make all the soil around them more fertile for other plants. Their leaves and pollen are high quality protein sources for wildlife, and their nectar is a great food source for bees. In short, basically everything is good about clovers.

well I know what I’m adding to my garden!!!!! Wow!

You could also start a small indoor garden to keep some green leaves available year round.

Do it, man! Everyone should seed their lawns with clover. Where there is clover, there’s hope for native bees.

Hey all, I know it's been a while since the last update, unfortunately not much has happened, just some small growth, etc. Today I gave them a large rose petal and they took it and processed it in record speed, in only a few hours instead of overnight. Hopefully them enjoying the flowers should boost their growth rate, but we'll see. Until next time folks.

Maybe they’re at a point where the population is keeping the fungus growth slow. Hopefully things will level out and then boom!

Certainly, once they get more workers I have no doubt they'll start going at a proper rate. As of now, I have only seen eggs, but I am assuming the stress of being shipped has thrown them off. That or they have just hidden any other brood in the fungus.

Also, made a time lapse of the processing rose bits.
