crop. Rye has deep penetrative roots that help to break up heavy soils and so improve soil structure. It is brilliant at suppressing weeds as it grows quickly and continues to grow in cold conditions. It suits most soils and copes especially well with heavy clay ones. It does require the correct conditions to germinate in autumn (not too much rain) and watch out for slug\/snails who like its tasty leaves and birds who like to nip off the tops!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForage Rye may be fairly hard to dig in after winter especially on heavy clay soils (good exercise though!) If it is difficult either loosen roots one day and then dig in a couple of days later, or cut down foliage and cover with a light excluding mulch such as black plastic for 3 weeks and it will then be easier to dig in. The foliage can also be added to your compost. Sow August to October and dig in during early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that forage rye releases a chemical that inhibits the growth of small seeds (particularly carrots, parsnips \u0026amp; spinach) so a month should be left after digging it in and before sowing the next crop.

is winter hardy and can be grown for up to 2 years but it will require cutting during the growing season to encourage new growth and prevent it going to seed in the 2nd year.

Italian Rye is particularly good at lifting the nitrates in the soil and releasing them slowly (once dug in) to the following crop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItalian Ryegrass is often combined with Red Clover as clover is brilliant at collecting Nitrogen but when dug in it rapidly decomposes \u0026amp; quickly releases the nitrogen. This is great for nitrogen hungry crops like brasssicas that are planted straight after but by combining with Italian Rye the rate of release is slower even up to 6 months later. (A ratio of 3\/4 Italian Rye to 1\/4 Red Clover is recommended). Red Clover also has excellent ground cover \u0026amp; weed suppressing properties to help smother weeds. Note Red Clover is part of the Legume family for crop rotation purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmerican research has also shown that in large-scale production a combination of Alfalfa \u0026amp; Italian Ryegrass increases the yield of Alfalfa.

annual green manure that can be planted from March to July and is part of the legume family. They suit light sandy acid soils and soils up to pH8 and are a hardworking leguminous plant that has very long tap roots that dredge up minerals. Lupins fix 25% more free nitrogen than clovers and 28% more than peas and beans. The long roots also help to break up and aerate heavier soils and allow more moisture retention with the addition of humus from the breakdown of the roots on light sandy soils.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLupin Blue Sonet produce a beautiful blue flower but it is best to dig it in and cut it down before they flower to help prevent them from seeding and then becoming a nuisance. The flowers are great for insects so a few could be left to flower to draw more insects into the vegetable area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is possible to sow Lupins as an intercrop, e.g. among long-growing varieties of veg like cabbage and sprouts, where they will contribute nitrogen to the soil (once they are dug in) and help promote growth in the veg crop.

fast-growing green manure that can be sown from March to September. It has a growing period of 1-2 months and can reach 60-90cm tall. This half-hardy annual grows on most soil types but particularly likes fertile ones. It may require additional watering in dry periods especially to help it establish.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eMustard produces large volumes of green matter and residual fibre which when chopped up and dug in is particularly good for soil that lacks organic matter as it helps to improve soil texture and moisture retention. It is not very hardy but may come through a milder winter. If it does get frosted, the foliage can be left on the soil surface as a mulch. It will gradually be incorporated by worms etc. and the remainder can be dug in during early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eMustard does not fix nitrogen but is a rapidly growing annual nitrogen lifter.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eAfter 4-8 weeks of growth chop down the plants and cultivate into the top few inches of your soil. On sandy ground let mustard reach 40cm in height before digging in. This will produce more fibrous plant matter that can help very free draining soils retain more moisture and nutrients.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eIt is also thought that mustard may reduce the population of wireworms by stimulating the pest to complete their life cycle much quicker - these insects can devastate a crop of potatoes. (We sow it before planting our seed potato beds).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eMustard Green Manure is part of the brassica family so caution is needed if sown before a brassica in a crop rotation plan as it may increase the likelihood of diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\r\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeed Some Help On Green Manure?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen we have 2 invaluable resources on our website that will provide the answers to all of your Green Manure questions:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003e1.

It produces a dense canopy of foliage that smothers \u0026amp; out-competes weeds and once dug into the top layer of soil (15-18cm) rapidly decomposes helping to improve the soils structure \u0026amp; organic matter content so it can retain more moisture.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTE - we have now changed the variety that we purchase and Buckwheat is now suitable for growing and turning in to flour etc. for human consumption.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuckwheat does not fix nitrogen, but it will prevent it from leaching. Buckwheat is great at scavenging for phosphate in the soil, especially suitable for soils that suffer from phosphate lock-up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf left to flower buckwheat produces pretty little pink flowers that are loved by bees \u0026amp; beneficial insects, but as with the majority of green manures, it is better to dig in whilst young \u0026amp; green rather than old \u0026amp; woodier as they decompose more rapidly (maybe leave just a few to flower). It is especially important to dig in before going it goes to seed as it germinates very easily \u0026amp; may produce lots of unwanted volunteers. It can be topped if done early. However, Buckwheat is an annual that is susceptible to frost so early spring or later autumn frosts will kill it. Keep an eye out for late frosts in May.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuckwheat is thought to produce toxic substances that inhibit the growth of other seeds particularly effective against the germination of annual broad-leaved weeds. This is known as 'Allelopathy'. This can be a problem if small vegetable seeds are sown directly after buckwheat has been dug in, like carrots or parsnips so leave a month before sowing seeds. It doesn't cause any problems for small seedling transplants.

perennial green manure. It is the best variety of clover for fixing nitrogen from the air, weed suppression \u0026amp; improving soil structure. Its roots penetrate deep into the soil and help to improve its structure by binding soils together (especially light ones) and this help against nutrients leaching in wet winters. The growing bulky foliage also helps to prevent soil erosion especially during winter and helps the soil to retain more moisture in summer\/winter.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Clover Green Manure Seeds can be sown between April - September at a rate of 2-3g\/sqm and can be left for 3-18 months. It is good at suppressing weeds as it grows bulky foliage that smothers weeds (give it a good start clearing the soil of all weeds first). The flowers are loved by bees and beneficial insects but cut down or dig in before setting seed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClover is part of the pea family and fixes nitrogen from the air in its root nodules. (These are the little pink nodes found on the roots of the legume family). When chopped up and dug into the soil the nitrogen store is released fairly quickly. If sown with a 'nitrogen lifter' like Italian Rye or Forage Rye the nitrogen will be released at a slower rate sometimes up to 6 months later so use will depend on when the following crop will be planted and the nitrogen needed. This is very important to large scale farmers and useful for small home\/allotment growers. Sow clover before brassicas in a crop rotation plan to release nitrogen to the following leafy greens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Clover has medicinal properties that are used in the treatment of 'hot flushes' as it contains chemicals that mimic the female sex hormone oestrogen. It also helps in the control of eczema, whooping cough and even nappy creams. Do not try to make yourself only buy proper propriety medicines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeed Some Help On Green Manure?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen we have 2 invaluable resources on our website that will provide the answers to all of your Green Manure questions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.

Its foliage \u0026amp; roots add valuable organic matter when chopped up and dug in the following spring. It works well with the Legume family in particular Winter Tares and Red Clover as it is a Nitrogen Lifter. It lifts Nitrogen from the soil and holds it until the foliage \u0026amp; roots are dug back into the soil and then it releases the Nitrogen slowly as it decomposes making it available to the next crop to utilise.

Plants need nitrates to grow and it particularly helps with the green leafy growth of Brassicas so is excellent to use before a Brassica crop. The Nitrates are released when the foliage and roots are chopped up and dug in, but if sown with the Westerwolds Ryegrass their release is more gradual and controlled and Nitrates can be released for up to 6 months.
