Hi, i was thinking of maybe using Mustard as a cover crop this year, Dose anyone know what type of Mustard is best to use, Like white mustard, black mustard.
Is Mustard good for a cover crop or would i be better with something like oats?
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

If you had soil related disease issues then the mustard should be fine. You should be aware of mustard being capable of killing beneficials as well, and therefore I wouldn´t use it as long as the soil seems healthy. Oats should be great.
