I've voted both.We used barley(or maybe rye??...must start writing these things down!)for the first time this last autum.It's where we plan on putting the majority of our carrots,the soil was starting to look a little lack lustre & obviously didn't want to use manure,so a kind chap gave us some of his barley(or rye).So far I have only his word that it will help produce some monster carrots,but hopefully midsummer I'll know that it worked.
I'm thinking of growing some alfalfa on our new plot...supposedly helps to break down heavy soil,but think it has to be left in for quite some time???Does anyone know if I can grow other crops amongst it?
I've also read that Caliente Mustard is reported to kill off spear grass...may actualy have been a Snadger post?
