If you care about the condition of the soil on your site, then you are probably already planning all the important autumn activities.
This also includes sowing green manure.
However, it is always worth knowing how to choose them correctly.
What little-known facts are worth paying attention to?
Benefits of Legumes
First of all, legumes are planted to compensate for the nitrogen deficiency. This will be a great help for plants at the very beginning of the season.
Phacelia
This green manure can be safely called universal, so it can be sown in any situation. Phacelia has no "contraindications", which ensures such popularity.
Green manure with a powerful root system
These are excellent options for those cases when the soil needs to be enriched as much as possible. This will help to "get" all the necessary nutrients closer to the top layer of soil.
Buckwheat and rye
These types of green manure are considered to be among the most useful. They are capable of restoring even the poorest soil.
After growing them, the harvest becomes much richer.
