AVSeeds’ Post

Fall is time for cover crops! Careful management of soil fertility is vital for prosperous pastures and crop fields. Rangeland and other agroecosystems that have been thinned by overgrazing or drought can be revitalized and protected over the winter by overseeding with a cover crop when resting the area isn’t possible. Nitrogen-fixing, cool-season legumes such as crimson clover, winter peas, and vetches all help restore depleted soils. As an example, in Colorado and other areas with cold winters, winter peas and vetch are particularly popular. Winter-hardy cereal grains such as triticale and winter rye can provide erosion control and protective mulch that suppresses weeds and reduces water needs. We offer a wide variety of cover crop species and are happy to get you the right species to suit your needs. #covercrops #farming #agriculture #seeds #gardening #avseeds

Who needs a seed spreader when you have a toddler? Overseeding is a great fall activity for all ages! Izzie and her "assistant" overseeded with our #Vitality Triple Star Blend this weekend. See our website for more lawn blends for fall overseeding! https://lnkd.in/g8iwbasD #lawnmaintenance #vitality #turf #overseeding #fall #autumn #lawn #cutekids #avseeds
