Cover crops are good for your garden in winter

OW WE GARDEN is somewhat a reflection of our personalities. For example, take those fastidious souls who must have a thoroughly tidy vegetable garden even this time of year, when the garden is pretty much devoid of vegetables.

Such gardens commonly are put to bed with a few passes of a rototiller. In so doing, weeds are killed, winter quarters for insects and diseases are destroyed, and, perhaps most important to fastidious gardeners, the garden presents itself as a uniform, smooth surface.

Though the thoroughly pulverized soil left in the wake of the rototiller is what is needed for sowing seeds in spring, it’s not the best way to leave the soil for the winter.

Raindrops pounding on the bare, powdered surface ruin the physical structure of the soil and, on sloping gardens, erode topsoil.

What about gardeners at the other end of the spectrum of personality types, those lax souls who do nothing at all to the soil at the end of the season?

In such gardens, woody stalks of Brussels sprouts and old tomato plants draped with blackened leaves remain as relics of the past season, buried amongst encroaching weeds.

There is a certain merit in this laissez-faire approach, because the standing vegetation captures snow (snow is “poor man’s manure,” say the French) and protects the soil surface from pelting raindrops. And weeds enrich the soil with humus.

The do-nothing approach does have its drawbacks, though. The primary drawback is that, come spring, something has to be done.

This usually means rototilling or hand-digging. Gardeners itching to plant early in the spring are apt to become frustrated. First they have to wait for the soil to dry enough to dig, and then they have to

Cover crops — oats shown here — protect the soil in this vegetable garden from rain and wind, and improve its structure and fertility. (LEE REICH)

wait another couple of weeks after digging for the weeds and old vegetables to decompose.

Another problem is pests.

Perennial weeds that get a foothold in the fall are just that much harder to remove in spring. Annual weeds that get into the garden in the fall make great efforts to reproduce — a single plant of lamb’s quarters or purslane can spread over 50,000 seeds! And the standing remnants of the previous year’s vegetable garden can harbor insects and diseases through the winter.

There are other possibilities between the do-nothing or do-too-much approaches.

In late fall, hand-digging is better for the soil than rototilling. This time of year, hand-digging need not be an agonizing task, since the goal now is not to end up with a smooth surface. Just the opposite, in fact. Turn over shovelfuls of soil, then leave

them. This kills existing vegetation, yet the large clumps of soil resist damage by rain and cannot wash away. By spring, freezing and thawing will have weakened the clumps so that they crumble into a good seedbed with only a light tickling with the teeth of a rake.

If hand-digging sounds like too much work, go ahead and get out the rototiller. But do this in late summer rather than now. Till the soil enough to make a seedbed, then go ahead and sow seeds of a cover crop. Cover crops are plants grown to protect the soil surface.

You get all the aforementioned benefits of the do-nothing approach (except that you have to do something), and the additional benefit that the cover crop will starve and shade out most weeds attempting to gain a foothold in the garden. Also, there are no opportunities for insects and diseases to spend the winter

on old vegetables, which either were dug into the ground or carted off to the compost heap.

Cover cropping is something to keep in mind for next season, since it’s too late to sow one. Plants to use include winter rye (rye grain, not ryegrass), a cold-hardy plant that can be sown even in early fall, or buckwheat, sown a few weeks earlier. Rye will live through the winter and start to grow again in spring, so needs to be tilled or dug into the soil at that time. Buck-

Since 1985

wheat is killed by freezing weather, but then flops down on top of the soil and protects the surface.

The vegetable gardens of those who choose not to till their soil can spend the winter covered with an organic mulch, such as compost, straw, or leaves. This blanket protects the surface and, through the action of worms, eventually mixes with and enriches the soil.

No tilling or digging is necessary — just pull out or knock over standing plants, then lay down the mulch. Put down a thick enough layer to smother weeds.

One disadvantage of mulch is that is an insulator, so delays soil warming in spring. Also, you cannot plant small seeds directly in mulch. To get around these pitfalls, some gardeners pull back a thin strip of mulch right where they are going to sow seeds; other gardeners remove the mulch early in the spring to the compost pile or to garden paths, at least temporarily, to allow the soil to warm.

Compost used as the mulch to cover the ground for the winter can be sown directly with seeds in spring. There is no need to pull back a compost mulch to hasten soil warming in spring, since the compost becomes the soil for planting.

Guess how I leave my vegetable garden for the winter?— Any gardening questions?

Turn-of-the-century lights can have festive look

S WE GO DEEPER into December, the nights get longer and the days darker. It’s no wonder so many holiday traditions involve lights, from the Hanukkah menorah to strings of Christmas tree lights to Kwanzaa candles.

In the early 20th century, everyday lights could look festive, too. Incandescent light bulbs were invented in 1879.

While they took some time to replace familiar light sources like candles and oil lamps, designers quickly realized their potential. Amplifying the light and protecting the flame were no longer the highest priorities for lighting design. In fact, electric lights often needed to be softened.

The early 20th century saw the appearance of beautiful, elaborate glass lampshades.

The Pairpoint company in New Bedford, Massachusetts, started making lamps in 1890.

Their most famous — and most expensive — are their Puffy lamps with three-dimensional designs. This Puffy lamp with three-dimensional flowers and colorful hummingbirds sold for Puffy painted shades mean Pairpoint lamps can bring beau$5,736 at Morphy Auctions. ty to a room even when they’re turned off.

“foil” Pokemon cards. Where can she go to sell them?

A.

Foil Pokemon cards, also known as holographic or holo cards, almost always have higher value than non-foil, or matte, cards, especially if they are first edition. A local card or comic shop is usually the easiest place to sell trading cards but will not necessarily get you the best prices. They need to be able to make a profit from reselling the cards and so will likely offer you less than market value. You may be able to sell for higher prices at a card show if there is one in your area. There are plenty of online resources for researching and selling Pokemon cards. You can find guides to determine the condition and value of your cards on tcgplayer.com. It is also possible to sell cards through them, $5,736 at Morphy Auctions. (COWLES SYNDICATE INC.)

Mortgage rate falls to lowest level since late September

By ALEX VEIGA

Associated Press

The average long-term U.S. mortgage rate fell for the fifth week in a row, more good news for prospective homebuyers grappling with an increasingly unaffordable housing market.

The latest decline brought the average rate on a 30-year mortgage down to 7.22% from 7.29% last week, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday. A year ago, the rate averaged 6.49%.

The average rate on a 30year mortgage is now at the lowest level it’s been in 10 weeks, when it was 7.19%.

“Market sentiment has significantly shifted over the last month, leading to a continued decline in mortgage rates,” said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s chief economist. “The current trajectory of rates is an encouraging development for potential homebuyers, with purchase application activity recently rising to the same level as mid-September when rates were similar to today’s levels.”

While the recent string of rate declines are welcome news for would-be homebuyers, the average rate on a 30-year home loan remains sharply higher than just two years ago, when it was around 3%.

Higher rates can add hundreds of dollars a month in costs for borrowers, limiting how much they can afford in a market already out of reach for many Americans. They also discourage homeowners who locked in rock-bottom rates two years ago from selling.

The average rate on a 30-year home loan climbed above 6% in September 2022 and has remained above that threshold since. In late October, it climbed to 7.79%, the highest level on records going back to late 2000.

White House CONTINUES FROM PAGE F2

Glowing candles and stained glass in the Green Room celebrate faith, and holiday craft-making is the theme in the Red Room, where a tradition of featuring cranberries continues.

The official White House Menorah is on display in the Cross Hall connecting the State Dining Room and the East Room, which is decorated with trees and various advent calendars.

The décor also features likenesses of family cat Willow and dog Commander, who was recently sent away after multiple incidents of biting Secret Service personnel.

Ninety-eight Christmas trees, nearly 34,000 ornaments, over 22,000 bells and more than 350 candles were used in the décor, according to the White House. Nearly 142,500 lights illuminate trees, garlands, wreaths and other displays, and nearly 15,000 feet of ribbon are part of it all.

Seventy-two wreaths sporting red ribbons adorn the north and south exteriors of the building.

Some 300 volunteer decorators and designers spent a few days last week gathering decorations from a warehouse.

They spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday putting the decorations in their proper places.

Holiday decorations adorn the White House for the 2023 theme “Magic, Wonder and Joy.” (EVAN VUCCI / ASSOCIATED PRESS)
