Cover Crop-Buckwheat-Organic Description
Fagopyrum esculentum Buckwheat provides vital garden functions almost too numerous to list. Growing to 24-36 inches tall, it yields ample amounts of green manure and attracts beneficial insects to its blooms. As a dense cover it is effective at suppressing even the most aggressive weeds. It can grow in nutrient-poor soils, and its brittle stems and roots are easy to break with a hoe. It mines insoluble phosphorus from the soil, and once tilled under, releases the essential element for other plants to utilize. Recommended seeding rate: 1 pound per 500 square feet; 50 pounds per acre. Cover Crop Growing Information
