cover crop

Huntsville, TX

what type of rye grass do i plant to cover vegetable garden, and when?

Augusta, GA(Zone 8a)

Rye grass is quick, but I prefer grain rye (Abruzzie) for a winter cover crop. I plant around the first of October and plow down in March. Naturally I don't use it on plots planted to winter vegetables like collards, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, turnips , rutabagas, turnips and winter greens.
