Hmmm, planting through live rye. You're using annual rye, yes? When did you plant yours and when does it die out on you? ? I had an annual rye cover on several beds through this past winter, turned it under this spring. I might have to play with your planting through live rye next spring.
Nematodes don't "wake up" and start doing damage until soil temp gets above 60-65 so the fall and early spring brassicas along with the English peas don't have a problem. But the later squash, cukes, okra etc sure do.
