I wouldn't be worried about the uptake and use of the nutrients besides Nitrogen. N might poise an issue because of tie up. But, I think the C.C. would be recycling and releasing the nutrients as much as it would uptake.

Some believe some species of C.C. help to find nutrients deeper in the soil profile that typical corn and soybean crops cannot find. Then they bring them to the upper soil profile when the plants decay and release the nutrients.
