hello all,

I've got a plot of buckwheat that is now flowering on a piece of pretty 
lousy ground. I want to cut it before it goes to seed and put in a 
rye/vetch cover crop for the winter. I was thinking of sowing my 
rye/vetch seeds then just scything the buckwheat and letting it lay 
over the newly sown seed. Does anyone have any experience or 
suggestions one way or the other?

Thanks,
