You're not wrong SageCat. I grow comfrey and harvest it in early summer and compost it and then let it grow again. I have to say that apart from composting it, I have not dug it in. It is quite deep rooted and could pop up where it's not wanted, unlike the plants that are generally sold for green manure, tares, alfalfa etc.

They should do in theory at least, a bit like clover.
