I don't think, i have felt a bitter and nutty taste but the bitter taste was really not strong but he was here.
She was an odour of condensed milk and the pulpit was yellow and very dry.
When the fruit is old, i think that he is more bitter.
The dry summer was not help to reduce the cucurbitacin rate.
I don't would take the risk to cook her.
She could very good eaten as a zucchini or less matured for me but she is too matured.

when planting cover crops i usually have a four prong rake for breaking the surface of the soil a bit to let some of the seeds get lodged. after i've roughed it up a bit then i scatter the seeds and then go over it all quickly again to help cover more of the seeds. much has to do with the conditions of the soil before hand too. if you have easy soil and a clear garden space this is all very easy, dried out heavy clay compacted soil and things get a bit tougher. enjoy the fall gardening! |

The roots are more strong in a dried heavy clay compact soil! Its bit thougher with the so cuty slugs.  They selected the most resistant plant |

haha! when people talk about tilth, i wonder what that is when in so many gardens here when it gets dry i can walk on them and make no impression at all in the garden soil. some other gardens are better now and i do make some marks, but a long ways to go before they are prime. still, these are all very productive gardens you just have to know how to treat them and when to stay out. i do know what tilth is though, that was just a bit of a joke. |

a few rounds of peas, buckwheat, winter wheat or winter rye, oats, etc. certainly do help. i wish i could do more cover crops here. |

The buckwheat don't resist at the freez!
For me the lentil is eaten by the slugs.

I would try an harvest of radish during the winter.
I think that i have found the conditions for the lentil, she required a soil very draining.
My mustard was germinate.If my lentil not germinate i will did a mix of brasicacee.
I have found of seed cabbage, can i did a seedling of cabbage with my radish in november?

i think you are asking if you can mix radishes and cabbages. and yes, of course you can since the radishes even as sprouts are edible (i prefer the sprouts to the radishes themselves). then you can thin the radishes and harvest while the cabbages get going. eventually you'll harvest all the radishes and have nothing but cabbages left.
