I have a 40' x 12' asparagus patch. Has anyone tried using a cover crop,
like buckwheat, for weed control?

I grow catnip in my asparagus bed. ;-)

Works for me..... It' a mint so it takes over. The asparagus grows right
up thru it.

If you let the female asparagus's grow up and fern out, they tend to
shade out the weeds anyway.
