I'm using one bed to experiment with building #soil nutrients with green manure and cover crops, without use of store bought compost or fertilizers.

I just planted whippoorwill cowpeas & sunn hemp. The bed previously held kale, collards and nasturtiums for about four months so the soil in that area is pretty depleted.

I will chop & drop the plants when they begin to flower and layer with homemade #compost and then wait a few weeks before planting. Any thoughts/advice? #gardening
