Cover Crop - Large premium packet of Annual Buckwheat seeds. Winter-hardy and drought-tolerant cover crops can help cover the soil of your home garden beds during the off season. We've included enough seed in one packet to cover an 8' x 4' garden bed. Minimum of 14 g per packet (about 475 seeds).
Productive - Buckwheat germinates in 7-14 days when soil temps are 70-80F. Plant .5 deep and space 4-6 apart in an area with full sun. This variety will grow 2-3 tall with a spread of 6-18. Buckwheat will mature in 70-90 days, plant in USDA zones 3-10.
Soil Health - Buckwheat grows quickly to smother weeds and protect from erosion. If allowed to mature, groats are protein-rich and provide a nutritious alternative to wheat for anyone who needs to avoid gluten. Beekeepers love its nutritional benefits for honeybees. Improving soil health through cover crop planting is an easy and low cost way of maintaining your garden from year to year.
Easy to Grow - Instructions included on each packet. Plus, we are available to answer all your questions. If these seeds dont germinate, we will happily make it right for you.
