Almost every gardener knows about the importance of planting green manure crops – they make the soil rich in useful elements.
But they can be planted not only in the beds, but also in other places on the plot.
They will be useful even if you grow them on relatively fertile soil outside the garden, mow them down and use them as fertilizer.
Let us pay attention to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
Where can you plant green manure?
Green manure is usually planted in the garden bed in early spring, after the snow has melted. This allows you to literally and figuratively prepare the soil for future plantings.
But they can also be planted between rows, which will protect this area from weeds. Also, this method of planting prevents the soil from crumbling during rain.
It is worth remembering that green manure is also useful for trees – just sow it in the tree trunk circles so that it acts as fertilizer and natural mulch.
