Borrowed a friends tiller to rip all the weeds out of my big patch (and this small tomato garden too).

I'm trying using the WOW Kodiak Mustard to get the biofumigation benifits. And it got me thinking. I just seeded my 1500 square feet today. And if I let it go for 4 weeks before a cut and tilling that gets me to October 13th. Which I think will be fine, but my bigger thought is that if I want another cover crop after the mustard I might run into problems establishing another cover with the ITC in the soil.

Which leads me to my real question. Yall that still have big ones in the patch. What do you do? Are you rotating to another patch next year? Are you taking another approach to disease control and cover crop? I know I'm not the first person to think about this.
