You can even just cut the cover crop at the base(an electric hedge trimmer works great for garden scale) and let it lay down on top the beds. You can then use it as a mulch and plant right through it. It will break down slowly over time consistently feeding the soil life as well

We do this as well and works great 👍

Do cows eat that

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

@@anthonyraino9730 absolutely. Super high protein. Here if I’m planting for pasture cover crop for cows I plant about 60% pearl millet, 30% iron and clay peas, and 10% some other broad leaf forage I choose at the time or just 40% peas

[@robyartist1]

So when would we plant these cover crops up north? My tomatoes are winding down in October. We can get snow at the end of October. Can I do cover crops & if so what kind?

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

These are a summer cover crop so would need to go in when you would plant tomatoes but if you want a cool season cover crop I would plant something like austrian winter peas. They just need a few weeks of mild/slightly warm weather to get them started

[@GinaSiska]

Does it make a difference if you till the peas back in or chop and drop it, leaving the roots in place?

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Most of the time we would turn it in so that way the carbon and nitrogen don’t off gas (go back into the air) and the microbes will break it down faster. The nitrogen is locked up in the leaves of the plant so it’s best to get that back into the soil

[@GinaSiska]

@@TheMoreYouGrow thank you!

[@drewblack749]

Good explanation. Are you saying that chop and drop has its disadvantages? Never thought about the off gassing. Thank you. Good looking crop.

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Yes it’s super high in protein! They would love it 👍 It shouldn’t be their only food source or they might bloat but a really good supplement.

[@kp76333]

Will chickens eat it

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Absolutely! Very high protein
