If the sun gets to it on the next few days, It will be much easier to till in. But you can do it now. Till it in then 3-4 days later do it again.

It really depends on the particular cover crop,,till it as soon as you can as PB said. Put that green in the dirt if possible, letting it turn brown you waste alot of the benefit. Once tilled, hit it with a bio product that's designed for breaking it down or at the least a molasses drench to help speed the process.
