Secrets of Green Manure (Cover Crops)

Green manures, also known as cover crops, are a great way to benefit your garden when other plants aren't growing. Green manure is a name for plants that can be turned into the soil for specific garden benefits: improving soil; reducing weeds; reducing soil erosion; increasing biodiversity. Sowing green manure seeds in late summer often allows the plants to grow into the fall and winter.

These are some of the beneficial green manures:
Clover, hairy vetch (tares), bell beans, fava beans, Austrian winter peas, oilseed radish, winter wheat, mustard, alfalfa, oats, barley, annual ryegrass, winter rye, rapeseed, buckwheat, and field pea.
