IVE DUG THIS IN, ALSO IF I SOW A LITTLE AROUND MY
CARROT BED THIS MAY KEEP CARROT FLY AWAY.
WHAT DO THINK

Joy Larkcom puts fenugreek in with the leguminous category ... that would make peas and carrtos reasonable companions!  Think I would add a row of spring onions or marigolds too just for good measure!

JL's book " Grow your own Vegetables" is one I would recommend to everybody.   My 'bible' !!!  ;D

Fenugreek will not fix nitrogen into the ground for the following crop if it's cold thus good for summer use  ;D
To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven: a time to be born and time to die: a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted.     Ecclesiastes, 3:1-2
