See more belowSorry, We couldn't find this product
Description
100 Days. Cicer arietinum. Cover Crop. Organic. Heirloom. Similar to Daikon radish and mustard cover crops, organic garbanzo bean seed is grown for its uniquely deep taproot known to break up firm, uncultivated soils to prepare for the growing season. And like all legumes and cover crops, non-GMO organic garbanzo is a beneficial nitrogen-fixing crop, able to repair damaged and deficient soils during the grow season or, most commonly, tilled back into the garden as an all-natural organic green compost. Non-GMO Cicer arietinum is a popular cover crop traditionally sown in the fall to replenish nitrogen content in garden soil while breaking up tough soils. Similar to Daikon radish and mustards, garbanzo seeds grow a deep taproot that can help prepare fields and grows spaces that have gone untouched in years or have never been cultivated. Whether grown between seasons or alongside a crop as a nitrogen-boosting companion plant, heirloom garbanzo bean seeds are traditionally sown for warm weather mowing to till and mulch into a sustainable organic green mulch. Unlike many taller legumes and grains, garbanzo is a low-growing crop and does not provide much relief against erosion and runoff. However, as a legume, organic garbanzo will benefit immensely from a legume inoculant to ensure its ability to maximize its nitrogen production in the soil.
