Cover crops usually are grown to prevent soil loss from wind and water erosion. Use fast-growing cover crops, such as winter wheat or annual rye, on fall-spaded gardens. A second, and probably more important reason home gardeners should use cover crops is to improve soil structure and increase organic matter.
Does bimonthly mean twice a month? No! bi-monthly means every two months, like bi-weekly means every two weeks. semi-monthly means twice a month. Think of mortgage payments or payroll, bi-weekly payroll meaâ¦ns one receives payroll every second week (i.e. every second Friday). Semi-monthly payroll means twice a month (typically the 1st and 15th of the month).
Many people are puzzled about bimonthly and biweekly, which are often ambiguous because they are formed from two different senses of bi-: âoccurring every twoâ and âoccurring two times.â This ambiguity has been in existence for nearly a century and a half and cannot be eliminated by the dictionary.
