How best to keep a fallow SFG bed 11/4/2024, 12:14 am by KiwiSFGnewbie Due to a big personal project this southern summer and autumn my 2-year-old raised SFG vege bed is going to have to be fallow until this time next year. I have a couple of questions as to how best to keep it. 1. Stopping the MM from drying out. Currently I have a few layers of cardboard sitting underneath the gridlines (tent guy ropes). I folded it and cut the corners so it actually goes … [ Full reading ] Comments: 9 Vermiculite -- shipping sale through 10/31/2024 10/30/2024, 2:27 pm by markqz A.M. Leonard is having another shipping sale. No shipping through Halloween with code HALLOWEEN24P . I haven't tried creating a shopping basket (I'm shy that way), but whenever these sales have happened in the past, they seem to work. Coarse Vermiculite is currently running $48 to $52 at A.M. Leonard. Comments: 0 source for chemical-free lanscape fabric 9/18/2024, 1:21 pm by Woodsong Hello! My husband and I are putting in square foot gardening beds this fall. We would like to layer cardboard and landscape fabric in the whole area where the beds will be. Do you have any suggestions for chemical-free landscape fabric that will last? Thank you! Comments: 2 Starbucks for coffee grounds! 5/20/2013, 12:35 am by sanderson The Starbucks manager not only gave me a heavy bag of used coffee grounds, he double bagged it and carried it out to my car, all with a smile! The grounds are super fine compared to drip ground Folgers that I used to use, so I bet it will blend nicely. I tried a waffle house for egg shells but they didn't want the liability of giving me their "garbage." Any suggestions on obtaining egg [ Full reading ] Comments: 92 Vertical Zucchini 7/22/2024, 3:26 pm by markqz I started suspending my zucchini's last year. I didn't know that this was already a trend. Although this guy is being more professional about it. Why does everyone keep stealing my ideas before I've thought of them?  Comments: 4 Mel's Mix 7/16/2024, 11:00 am by GLPeters This is my 2nd year. My crops last year were a bit disappointing and are behind schedule this year (no spinach, no sign of any squash or cucumber at day 55 after planting). Is it possible the mix does not have enough nutrients? I did replenish the compost this spring and did "cheat" by adding some vegetable food a few weeks ago. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Gary Comments: 1 Wasabi Radish 10/18/2021, 12:52 pm by markqz This is not "real" wasabi root, like used in Japanese cuisine. That root can take two years to grow. This is Japanese Wasabi Radish. The promise was that this green radish would have much of the heat of that legendary product (though the legendary culinary paste is often actually made with horse radish). Some of it has been very hot, but radish hot. Some of it has been mild, like a mild … [ Full reading ] Comments: 2 Question about replenishing squares after harvest 5/28/2024, 1:51 pm by SMEDLEY BUTLER I'm beginning to think that the compost component of MM is all that you use to replenish the squares. For years, I have used straight MM to replenish the squares. I keep a 55 gallon drum of MM and use that whenever I harvest anything. My weakness with the MM is finding the 5 different kinds of compost. Most of the time I only have 3 or 4 different kinds. I'm still living in the past when it comes … [ Full reading ] Comments: 10 creating grids 4/18/2012, 5:54 pm by jevans Is 1x2 cedar an ok choice in grid. I want to have weed fabric as a cover with slits for plants. I was then thinking of having 1/4" drip line placed on top. Any thoughts?
