Oats, I love you! You are such a hassle!

Oats do not advertise, but sold as green manure. Its wonderful features, I found out by accident. And I do not want any "best green manure" this year. Only he.

What people say

I read venerable farmers who planted good leafy powerful perennials. Quote: comfrey, sylphs perfoliate, knotweed Vejrych family and graded Jerusalem artichokes, goat's rue.

And then in the comments people complained that they were so good, hardly escaped. Perennial rhizomes do not understand that they are green manure and behaved as the most vicious weeds.

In my case it is not an option for yet another reason. Two-meter grass roots, it's something fantastic. I do not have water at a depth of 2 m, Dry all summer!

Gennady Raspopov in this article believes that the oats gives very little humus. So I watered the ground flora, weaving Chernozem. I fertilize bacteria. Hay in winter harbor. I think in my case, it's better than to risk with unfamiliar plants.

The ideal green manure

Last year, it seemed to me that I had found the ideal green manure - annual lupine. In theory. Up to one meter had to grow up. And replace the manure on the season. Ha! I have 20 cm and all. Stupid stick with leaves. I think he realized that there is no water, and hurried downstairs to bloom.

My choice - oats

So, oats most leafy crop of cereals. If it is put under the winter, I'm going to do, it freezes, and it is not necessary to dig in the spring. Checked me.

Oats roots zemelku loosen, green mass will be rapidly available for the microflora. Bacteria will eat it, a carbon diet. A diaphragm remain nitrogen, potassium, and all trace elements that were in oats, in an easily accessible form for vegetable crops.

What else? He cold-resistant and cold-loving, even. In the autumn of that is necessary.

However, I still oats instead of peas also want to sow. Have cold water from the well watered, there 2 ° C. But his hay is! Peas have enriched the soil nitrogen-fixing bacteria, it's time he borrowed them oats.

Prior to seed grain to bring the impossible, otherwise it will not be green manure to enrich the soil and prozhora impoverishes it.

And what is your favorite green manure?
