Plant Cover Crops

4
  1. Solution: Grow cover crops like clover, rye, vetch, or buckwheat during the off-season or in fallow beds.
  2. Explanation: Cover crops prevent erosion, suppress weeds, add organic matter when tilled in ('green manure'), and some (legumes like clover, vetch) fix nitrogen from the air, enriching the soil. Select appropriate cover crops for your climate and goals.
  3. Notes: Long-term soil building strategy. Requires planning for planting and termination (tilling in or cutting before seed set).
