Winter rye, when to kill it, how long to transplant?
From what I understand, I need to wait until the winter rye flowers before cutting it, otherwise it'll grow back. I'm doing no-till so I plant on just chopping it up the best I can with a lawn mower then spreading it. Anyways the majority of the rye now has the head, but I don't see any flowers yet. Can I chop the rye now or must I wait longer?
Second question is in regard to transplanting. I wanted to plant into the mulch, but do I have to wait 2 weeks before I plant my transplants into it? Thanks. |
