The best, and quickest way is by use of weed control chemicals. 2-4-D or Weed-b-Gone type products. Clover does tend to shed water, so by adding a spreader/sticker to the mix before spraying. If you don't happen to have a spreader sticker, you can add a couple of tea spoons of ordinarly dish soap to a gallon of spray mix. This will help break the surface tension of the mixture and allow it to stick better to the plant.
