There's a reason I keep talking about the benefits of cover crops. They keep your soil alive and microbially active through the hot summer months, and these three crops don't mind the heat.
• Black-eyed peas and other heat-loving beans produce vigorously and are well-suited for cover crops.
•Sweet potatoes have a long growing season, deep roots, and sprawling vines and produce edible leaves and tubers (depending on when you harvest them).
•Tithonia is a large plant that produces significant plant matter. This vegetation decomposes quickly and may improve soil fertility as a chop-and-drop mulch.
