We have planted a cover crop of Medium Red Clover ( 3 lbs at $3.72 per lb from Main Street Seed and Supply). Put seeds in the ground in 10/16/2010. We also planted 2 packages each ($1.95) of Dwarf Siberian Kale, Harris Early Parsnips and 2 packages of Sevin Top Turnips (also $1.95). October 16 was a little late, but we got in two weeks of good watering before the 11/1 deadline of our community gardens. Only one other person has put in a cover crop, and they are growing a grass type (Rye or winter wheat).
Decided on Medium Red Clover after reading about it in "Managing Cover Crops Profitably."
