Dear Alison,

We  haven't tried a cover crop in our potatoes...at least on purpose.  
We have had a lot of volunteer clover reappear the last two years.  
Our children were in charge of weeding that spot and missed much of
 the clover and other weeds. The potatoes end up with a lot of raised
 marks where the roots were  seeking moisture.  The potatoes are
 ugly and not suitable for sharing.  We eat them.
