I haven't done any posts about it yet but basically it is an area of the yard which was originally in the shape a spiral that we started a process called lasagna gardening. That's where you put alternate layers of materials that compost in place over the winter so that in the spring you're growing area is all ready to be planted. It is no dig, meaning does not need tilled. Ours is not without challenges, but that's mostly because of where it was put and me not being able to actively take care of the area just outside of it. It has been mostly weed free, but I have a feeling that's not going to hold for much longer as I have a shit ton of grass that has gone to seed right beside it. / :
I like Lasagna :)
I wish I had a good place to plant,
it takes so much work even when I had a
small garden staring. Once I figure something
out you will be the one I am asking for
growing tips :)
Do you have any yard, balcony, patio, room in the house? there are ways to do it. have you seen my posts from 2011? I had a potted citrus orchard. if you do things in pots, they can be moved easily and/or transplanted later
The only thing I have is a staircase and I built a potted plant garden going up each stair and my landlord made me take it down. So lame because it was doing really nice and I could take a bucket and water them when i walked down downstairs:)
well that's just plain rude. What a jerk. Is that the guy you filmed arguing with you and you took his chair? haha
