iciris, it appears you posted the full Superstition "story" just before I posted my last reply.

Thank you for that! I actually planted winter rye last year and plan to follow up with mustard (brassica) before roto-tilling the mustard in. I then planned to build slightly raised beds, install drip irrigation and plastic to solarize. My understanding is that the mustard will provide a "natural fumigant" under the plastic.

This is incredibly helpful. It confirms my plans aren't too "radical" and just might work.

Can't tell you how much I appreciate you tracking that down! Thank you, thank you!!

Randy
