Buckwheat is frost-sensitive; plant only after the last spring frost and time harvest before the first fall frost.
Harvest when 75% of seeds have turned brown; waiting for full maturity causes excessive shattering and yield loss.
Use buckwheat as a short-season cover crop to suppress weeds and attract beneficial pollinators between cash crops.
