Just be cautious. Clover will grow on the side of the road that doesn't get limed. It doesn't actually need a ph of 6+, to grow (to thrive, yes). However the purpose of growing clover, is to provide the best and most nutritious plant, for our critters, this time of the year. In order to do that, it needs nitrogen. Nitrogen converts the amino acids in the plants, to protein and protein is what the deer need right now and why we grow it.
If IHunts innoculant was killed, because of low ph (5.5 ph or less will have an affect), it might be gone. No lime made it harder for the plants to pull nutrients out of the soil, from the fertilizer he applied.
Lime at Tractor Supply is going for $3/bag. Pretty cheap insurance, to do things right.
