So......I've been doing more reading up and i see an opportunity to take full advantage of my land. I currently have several acres planted in rows of Pines. They are a little older than 3 years now. I did the trees with 7 foot between rows so I can mow. They are spaced at about 3-4 feet in the rows. I see where people do what they call Alley Cropping...It's the practice of planting ground crops in the ground in the rows as a source of an income crop. I don't think i will do a cash crop just yet but would like to plant and just don't know what may do well. And I'm certainly not adverse to it making money but I want something I can keep and use day to day as a healthy crop for human consumption.......Make Sense? Anyone have any experience with this? Or would anyone offer suggestions of what may work where I know it's eventually be all shaded and pretty heavily shaded in another 2,3,4 years. Thanks and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated and considered.
