All of these elements were considered in compiling this carefully chosen cover crop seed blend. There are four legumes to set nitrogen in the soil, three hardy grains for rapid cover and bio-mass, a deep-rooted radish to help break up and aerate the soil, a mustard with natural insecticidal properties, and a great collard for forage and additional biomass. This cover crop seed blend is great for either fall or spring. Recommended to till the plants in before they bear seeds. If using a no-till method, cut down (scythe, string trimmer) before the crop goes to seed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCover Crop Mix garden seeds are available for \u003cstrong\u003eFast Free Shipping\u003c\/strong\u003e on orders over $45.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2017-06-27T11:03:46-06:00","created_at":"2017-06-27T11:03:49-06:00","vendor":"Mountain Valley Seed Co.","type":"Cover Crop Seeds","tags":["Annual","Cooler","Cover Crop","Cover Crop Mix","Full Sun","Mix","Non-GMO","Open Pollinated","Seeds","Staff Favorite","Staff Favorite_web"],"price":685,"price_min":685,"price_max":6603,"available":true,"price_varies":true,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":38910930248,"title":"1 lb","option1":"1 lb","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"18114","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":28066866298995,"product_id":9983323080,"position":1,"created_at":"2021-04-06T10:49:35-06:00","updated_at":"2021-04-06T12:45:13-06:00","alt":"Garden Cover Crop Mix","width":480,"height":480,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/garden-cover-crop-mix-grown-wm_263bca76-90f8-40a7-bf9f-e4c8217caf36.jpg?v=1617734713","variant_ids":[38910930248,38910930312,38910930376]},"available":true,"name":"Garden Cover Crop Seed Mix -

All of these elements were considered in compiling this carefully chosen cover crop seed blend. There are four legumes to set nitrogen in the soil, three hardy grains for rapid cover and bio-mass, a deep-rooted radish to help break up and aerate the soil, a mustard with natural insecticidal properties, and a great collard for forage and additional biomass. This cover crop seed blend is great for either fall or spring. Recommended to till the plants in before they bear seeds.
