The lilacs are just starting to open...just in time for Mother's Day.
There is still a lot of empty dirt in the garden. Better than weeds growing, I suppose.
I have taken to applying crimson clover seed as a cover crop between my rows. Yes it will get walked on. Don't care if it blooms.
ReplyDeleteTheory is: weed seeds will blow into the open dirt wether I want them to or not. There theu will germinate and need to be removed. If I plant a thick cover of clover, it will prevent the weed seeds from landing or starting. Clover gets killed, trampled, and tilled under in the fall. Nitrogen. I'm out 20 bucks.
