		<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[One of the best things you can do for your garden is to plant winter rye; the same crop that farmers grow for flour that eventually gets made into rye bread. Last year at this time I wrote a couple of posts about how to sow rye. You can scroll back and find those posts [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have an area in the garden that I will not be able to plant this year. Instead of letting it stay fallow and grow weeds, I planted buckwheat. It&#8217;s something I&#8217;ve done through the years whenever I&#8217;ve been unable to use an area for one reason or another. Buckwheat is a fast growing plant [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The rye cover crop I planted last fall made tremendous growth this spring. The plan all along was to till it into the soil before planting a week or so before planting. Timing is important when it comes to tilling under a cover crop like rye. The plants grew and entered the &#8220;boot stage&#8221; of [&#8230;]]]></description>

No, wait, that&#8217;s exactly what this post is about. Not to worry though, I&#8217;ve done all the boring work for you by watching that grass grow.

		<description><![CDATA[Our mild autumn temperatures have accelerated the growth of fall-planted, over-wintering, cover crops. Back in October I wrote about planting cereal rye as a cover crop in my garden. Since then the crop has germinated and made excellent progress toward establishing itself. When rye seed germinates, it emerges out of the soil as a single [&#8230;]]]></description>

It is the third week of October after all. I&#8217;m hoping that the weather will stay mild so my cover crop of rye will germinate and make some good growth before winter sets in.
