Gardeners,
               It looks rainy. I don't like to garden in the rain. While 
it is true that tilling can lead to erosion it's also true that not 
turning or weeding gives weds the edge. I can spare some more radishes 
and wheat as cover crops. If there's consensus, then I can try covering 
bare spots with winter wheat and radishes. We could turn in both crops 
come spring. Please leave the wheat in the centre plot, I am hoping to 
harvest that. What do we think of cover crops?
