Donīt take any height away, itīs a hideaway. Oh yes, in addition to merely being cover crop (shading the soil, stabilizing soil structure, producing heaps of underground organic matter) this field of rye may in fact have another benefit in case of my pumpkin patch. Located in a valley, my patch is (very often) cooling down pretty fast, because cold air from the hilltops is flowing down into the valley at night. Now the rye is as tall as the hoop houses and poses a barrier to the cold stream (to some extent).
