Competition, weed suppresssion, and insect mitigation effects. Vetch and rye/vetch were rows between rows of pumpkins, before, during, or after seeding pumpkin. Seeding cover crops more than 25 days from pumpkin emergence yielded the best result, and did not decrease pumpkin yields. S. Vanek sjv2@cornell.edu
