Avena sativa

Oats are a cool-season annual cereal grass that originated in the Fertile Crescent from its wild ancestor, Avena sterilis. Oats make a great cover crop whether you are looking to add biomass to your soil or offer forage to your animals. Its extensive fibrous root systems excel at erosion control and its upright growth habit can serve as a natural trellis for legumes. Oats suppress weeds and take up excess nutrients to hold them in place until your next crop is ready to absorb them as the oats decompose. Avena sativa, also known as common oats, is also used to make oatmeal, rolled oats, and milky oats! Oats typically grow 12-36 inches, sometimes even taller. Oats grow best in cool, moist conditions. Quick to germinate and mature given adequate moisture, oat seed can be sown in spring or fall. Broadcast the oat seed, rake them in shallowly, and keep the soil moist for rapid emergence.

Oats will winter-kill in much of zone 7 and colder, so if you plan on using it as a fall cover crop, we recommend sowing in late-summer or early fall, 6-10 weeks before your area’s average first frost. Once killed by hard frost, it can be left to act as a mulch to continue suppressing weeds, insulating the soil microbiome, and protecting the soil from erosion until spring at which point you can plant directly into the mulch if using no-till methods. It will not regrow in the spring like Winter Rye. In zones 8 and warmer where oats are likely to over-winter, when you are ready to terminate the cover crop, mow it to leave it on the surface as a mulch or till it in to incorporate it into the soil. Wait at least two weeks after killing the oats to plant your next crop. The same goes for spring plantings. Seeding rate: 4 pounds per 1,000 square feet.

nice color and fit
I bought the Laurel Green Large Fit: Fit as expected. The large is a nice fit for me at 5'4" and 140-145 lbs (depending on the week). I prefer a loose or relaxed fit rather than form-fitting/slim and that's what I have in the large. It doesn't hang or billow, sleeves don't go down too far, but it moves nicely and is quite comfortable. Feel: the fabric feels nice on the skin and is cool on the skin as well. We're in the lowe 40s here now, so hard to say how it will feel in the summer. The fabric itself will feel cool but breathability in muggy summer will have to wait to test Look: the laurel green is a very nice, very pleasant subtle color which I like a lot. I also like the little design touches--the cuffed sleeves, the covered buttons. It has some weight to it so it hangs nicely and the weight combined with fabric makes it less prone to wrinkles quality: all looks good. Clean crisp design, not mis-aligned stitching, frayed/hanging threads, etc. Buttons all button cleanly. Very pleased

Quality, warmth and style
Size: 13 Women/12 Men, Color: Black
Bought these for my husband and he loves them. True to size and keep feet warm in the WNY winter weather. They are a great boot due to durability and ability to slip on and off.
