I have tried clover as a smother crop but it is to slow growing in our area
to make it work. I feel that corn will do a lot better if it is keep
clean, grass and anything compete's for the moisture for the crop when it is
growing and setting ears for harvest. I do seed my strips down with rye ,
if I get time, but usually use buckwheat if I can find it. It really grows
very fast when the ground temp is up over 70 degree's.
