This cool-season cover crop blend includes nitrogen-fixing legumes—bell beans, purple vetch, and Biomaster peas—combined with biomass-producing Cayuse oats to improve soil structure, suppress weeds, and increase organic matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hardy mix thrives in full sun and a wide range of soil types, making it ideal for fall planting before spring vegetables or as a green manure between crop rotations. The legumes convert atmospheric nitrogen into plant-available forms, enriching the soil naturally, while the oats provide erosion control and break up compacted layers. When mowed and tilled under at flowering stage, Nitro-Max delivers a powerful dose of nutrients back into the soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you’re managing a raised bed, preparing a new garden area, or rehabilitating tired ground, this blend offers a natural, chemical-free solution to improving soil fertility. Sow in late summer or early spring and incorporate after 60–90 days of growth for best results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor more organic soil-building options, explore our\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.groworganic.com\/collections\/all-cover-crop-seeds\" target=\"_blank\"\u003efull collection of cover crop seeds\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeaceful Valley Nitro-Max Plow Down Mix – Bell Beans, Purple Vetch, Biomaster Peas, Cayuse Oats\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDid You Know?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLegume-based cover crops can fix over 100 lbs of nitrogen per acre, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and enhancing soil microbial life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e3-5 lb\/1,000 sq ft or 70-120 lb\/acre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInoculant:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePea-Vetch or Garden Combination inoculant (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGermination:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e5-10 Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e3'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUses:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eProvides high biomass and high nitrogen production.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFacts to Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eTill in when plants begin to flower.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContains:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBell Beans, Field Peas, and Common Vetch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peaceful Valley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49535735234788,"sku":"SCM360","price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/0290\/0196\/files\/peaceful-valley-nitro-max-plow-down-mix-seed-lb.jpg?v=1785402038","url":"https:\/\/groworganics.shop\/products\/peaceful-valley-nitro-max-plow-down-mix-seed-lb-8z6nl9","provider":"Westbridge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
