Crops obtain required S from diverse sources including soil, crop residues, manures, irrigation water, rainfall, atmosphere, and soil amendments and fertilizers ( Tabatabai, 1984 ). In the past, the primary sources of S for crops were from
high rate; however, poor germination resulted in a sparse crop residue that allowed a high population of dandelion to establish. Similarly, during both years, hairy vetch grew slowly so gaps in the thin plant canopy allowed numerous common purslane to

). Mulching with straw or cover crop residues increases soil moisture and reduces weed growth, but it is usually less effective than black plastic mulch film for weed management ( Anzalone et al., 2010 ). The volume of organic mulch required for effective weed

weathered and mineralized soils, which tend to be eroded and have low residual organic matter contents ( Brye et al., 2013 ). Returning crop residues or other plant matter to the soil, thereby increasing soil C, directly impacts SOM, humus content, and the
plant and/or food materials, and green manures (e.g., cover crop residues). Unless N availability is well synchronized with plant need and uptake, there is a significant potential for the loss of added N from vegetated roofs via leaching after irrigation
