		<description><![CDATA[I’m a big fan of cover crops both on the farm and in the garden. Cover crops are not harvested, instead they’re used for other purposes such as preventing erosion or improving soil tilth. One of my favorite cover crops is buckwheat, the same plant that gives us grain for buckwheat pancakes. It is very [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; It’s surprisingly easy to introduce an invasive plant into your garden. It often happens when gardeners share plants with one another. We have a few examples of that happening in our garden. One of those is Pinellia tripartita a plant native to China and Japan. I’ve heard it called Japanese jack-in-the-pulpit, although there’s another [&#8230;]]]></description>

I thoroughly hoed the garden before I went away the previous week but I didn’t have time to rake up the cut and dislodged weed stalks. Usually the hot [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a previous blog post I discussed how I was experimenting with agricultural paper as a weed barrier to control weeds in my garden. Agricultural paper mulch is engineered to slowly break down over the course of a growing season. Then when the growing season is over, whatever is left of it gets tilled into [&#8230;]]]></description>

Maybe you’ve noticed how much growth has been made so far this year making the landscape look so much more green. I bet, a hundred years from now, when people are looking at tree rings, they&#8217;ll notice how large the growth [&#8230;]]]></description>

The plastic I’ve tried has been in all the colors of the rainbow plus some that aren’t. They’ve all claimed to have an advantage over plain black [&#8230;]]]></description>

For example we say we were on a hayride at a get together even though the wagons are filled with straw rather than hay. Straw ride just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

It was the concept of potatoes and their companion plants or what scientists call positive allelopathy. The basic idea is that some plants grow better in the presence of other kinds of plants.
