In no-dig gardening, never leave soil bare! Keep it covered with crops or green manures like crimson clover in spring or winter field beans in autumn. After growth, chop & drop as mulch. This feeds soil life, suppresses weeds & protects structure. 🌱 #NoDig #GreenManure #SoilHealth

Also good to the recent rain has meant more of my green manure has germinated, adding much needed nitrogen to the soil.

Delighted to discover on today’s dog walk that a local farm has sown their fields with nitrogen-fixing flowers this summer. 😍 Counted well over 50 butterflies before I lost count! Seed mix seems to be phacelia, common poppy, various vetches and various clovers. Gorgeous. 😊 #GreenManure

For the last few years we've been using cover crops when we have empty beds. This is Buckwheat that we broadcast onto this bed after we harvested our edamame.
I love this system. The Buckwheat acts a green manure. Saves us from having to haul compost to the beds.
