How do I manage the timing for planting and terminating cover crops?
As I delve deeper into gardening practices, I've become increasingly interested in the idea of incorporating cover crops into my garden. However, I'm unsure about the optimal timing: when to plant them and when to terminate them before my main crops go in. My garden has a mix of perennials and seasonal flowers that flourish in the spring and summer, and I want to ensure that the cover crops don't disrupt their growth. Last year, I tried planting a mix of clover and rye, but the timing felt off, leading to some overcrowding. I’d love to hear how others plan their cover crop schedules, particularly those who might also have a bonsai setup like mine. Any insights into the timing nuances would be extremely helpful!
