Hairy vetch.

I think it might be my new curse word...only it's supposed to be a great cover crop to sow underneath tomatoes, and I'm going to buy five pounds of the seed and try it. It adds nitrogen, and the soil needs that for sure, and apparently increases yield and taste of tomatoes. Will it choke out galinsoga? I hope so.
