The Power of Cover Cropping: Boost Your Soil Health Naturally
Показать описание
I love building healthy soil this way! We ask a lot of our garden beds and soil to produce healthy, organic food for us, so we need to give them a little TLC too! In this video, Michelle from Forks in the Dirt will show you how planting cover crops can transform your garden.
Learn how oats can give the microorganisms in your soil something to eat, stave off soil compaction, increase organic matter, enhance nitrogen levels, and improve water retention. Plus, oat straw creates an allelopathic mulch that deters seeds from germinating the following season. Boom.
Work smarter, not harder – and that always means working with nature! I'll also share my favorite seed mixes, including oats, peas, field radishes, crimson clover, and buckwheat.
