Hi

I am looking at overwintering my plots with a green manure. I tried this
a couple of years ago. I found however that when it came to digging it
into the soil it was very difficult, and it kept growing back.

Does anyone know of a green manure that I can just chop down and leave
the foliage on the surface to decompose with no risk of it growing back.
i.e. the process of chopping the foliage effectively will kill the plant
and the roots will decompose in-situ and the foliage on the surface.

Thanks.


Cover with newspaper, or cardboard which, in turn, should be covered
with 3" to 4" of mulch (leaves, straw, ect.).

Both the House and Senate budget plan would have cut Social Security and Medicare, while cutting taxes on the wealthy.

Kucinich noted that none of the government programs targeted for
elimination or severe cutback in House Republican spending plans
"appeared on the GAO's list of government programs at high risk of
waste, fraud and abuse."

[W]e have the situation with the deficit and the debt and spending and jobs. And itıs not that difficult to get out of it. The first thing you do is you get rid of corporate welfare. Thatıs hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The second is you tax corporations so that they donıt get away with no taxation.
