We have on a limited scale...honestly grass growth has been a problem. With corn...works fine. With bush beans the grass grows too much and we are forced to weedeat/cut etc. since we can't put animals in with it. Squash we got a decent first and second crop but a third (which is pushing it anyway) had issues with a lot of rain and too much grass growth which caused mold. With pumpkins we have had better luck using a tine plow and planting between the grass furrows then moving the pumpkins onto the dirt as they mature. The biggest issue we have had is an over abundance of grass with no till since we don't spray a burn down on any of our cover crops.
