Spring Mix Green Manure Seeds |
|
Our Spring mix includes English Early Common Vetch and Mustard which make an excellent combination to grow early in the spring season as they both germinate at low temperatures.
Mustard
The mustard is quick growing and can be sown from March - September for a period of 2-4 months. It suits most soils and produces lots of leafy growth good for soils lacking organic matter, helping to improve soil texture and moisture retention.
Tares
The tares also produces a lot of bulky foliage that improves the soils fertility by adding organic matter, improving the texture of the soil and suppressing weeds. It also is good at fixing nitrogen in the soil, which is good for the next crop as nitrogen helps to promote healthy leaf and stem growth. This is good for a brassica crop in a crop rotation plan.
