I have clover planted and just want to know what kind of spray would work to kill the weeds (broadleaf) out but not harm the clover? Thanks,

If you are just controlling broadleaf's, the best "medicine" I have found is simply mowing it off at 6-7". Do not mow if it is hot and dry or a true drought condition.
hope this helps,
Mark

2,4-DB (Butyrac) works on broadleaves in clover. NOT 2,4-D!

+1 on T-Roy's post. Note the DB part of the name, that is significant!
Also, do some reading on using LIGHT doses of glyphosate (Roundup) for weed control in clover. I'm not saying I've done this and obviously, you would want to test gly on a small area first, but it comes up a lot.

volunteer, clethodim, select, arrow, poast are all grass killers and typical use rate is 6-10 oz per acre
pursuit at 2-4 oz per acre
brox or buctril are options.

From the other post. I was told that you need to inspect your clover and don't spray until there are 3 leaves of 3 on each plant. Then to get rid of grasses you can spray the Dakota. I was told don't spray for broadleaf until the second year. This is info from keystonepestsolutions.com. Don't spray the 2,4db on chickory or it will kill it but you can spray it on clover the second season.
