Default Lupins & sweet corn - allotment advice

Hi all,

A couple of allotment related questions,

I have lots of Lupin seeds collected from my garden and have read that
Lupins make a good green manure being a legume and provided they are dug
back in before they flower.

My question is can I use any lupin variety as I have lots of seeds from
my garden varieties.


Also, is there any problem with planting two varieties of sweet corn. I
was advised by someone that because they are wind pollinated it is
advisable not to plant two different varieties on the same plot.

Cheers,

Paul.
