Hairy Vetch Cover Crop

If your soil isn't producing the way it used to, it's time to introduce it to a cover crop! Cover crops fortify your soil with the minerals it's lost over time, improving tilth and introducing plenty of organic material and beneficial microorganisms back into the soil. Cover crops also help to reduce erosion and can even prevent weeds! Hairy Vetch is great for reintroducing nitrogen to the soil for plants that need lots of it, like roses, tomatoes, corn, cucumbers and squash. It grows tall and dense, with small trumpet-shaped, purple flowers. Use a hand broadcaster to sow 2 lbs per 1,000 square feet of soil.
