I’m tired of dealing with weeds. Thought about letting this thick wheat grow until the spring, terminate it, lay it over and then plant the garden veggies in the remaining thatch. Seems it would help minimize weeds, hold moisture, recycle nutrients, help make healthy soil, etc. I wonder if I’d need to transplant everything though or should veggie seeds punch through the thatch with no problems? CNC, or others, got any advice?

Farmers are doing it more with row crops. Better for the soil to have cover, than bare dirt.
I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore I believe in work, hard work. -George Petrie (1945)

I hope it works joe cause I want to do it next year. I always plant a little of my garden on the same day I do my food plots so I have a little "test" plot at the house I can monitor progress. So I'll plant the whole thing this fall if your successful.
CNC could soil compaction become an issue?

I don’t think it would…Not unless you already an issue to begin with..Just keep a root system in place at all times. When you terminate one root system then another is coming in behind it to take its place. Even though it’s been terminated, the cereal grain roots in Joe’s garden are still stabilizing the top soil right now and helping to maintain the “structure” of his soil. They serve as framework basically…….It would be a good idea to add in some radishes into the cover crop mix along with some clover. The radishes would take that root framework deeper into the soil profile and the clover would provide a little extra N to compensate for what the biomass will tie up as it begins to decompose. Vetch would be another option for a legume. It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to dust the whole garden with a little 34-0-0.....

CNC could soil compaction become an issue? This kinda started in a similar manner. I've also planted a little section at home about the same time at the farm so I could monitor general progress. I'll try to keep this topic updated throughout the summer.
