Garden cover crop termination (without a tractor!)

One of the most intimidating parts of cover cropping in the home garden is figuring out how to kill it: different cover crops require different termination methods, so it's always smart to research that BEFORE you plant! I like using the peas when doing spring cover crops because they are easy to terminate and provide organic matter and nitrogen very inexpensively (the total cost for this entire area was less than $10)! You can go back and watch our planting video for more details on how we do this (linked at the end of the video). We planted the peas in about 6 weeks before last frost and terminated right at last frost, since peas are a cool season grower this works out quite well! Have you tried spring cover crops before? Let me know which ones you like or DON'T like!
