After harvest, leave the roots in or remove 12/22/2021, 7:45 pm by Simso Folks, First harvest coming out of my sfg, just some lettuces destined for the christmas salad bowl, Mels book saids to leave the roots in and just cut the plant of at the base, is this what others are doing. Then comes the re nutrion of that square, local place only sells specific manure, eg cow manure, chook manure or pig manure, should i make a mix of all three? [ Full reading ] Comments: 15 Sifting Compost for Newbies 3/18/2023, 12:33 pm by danieggert Hi all, Getting everything ready to make my 1st ever Mel's Mix. On the advice of other posts from this site, I decided to sift my compost through a 1/4" hardware cloth. I mixed the bags up as I sifted so that they were already somewhat blended.. OMG DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP. My compost which looked somewhat crappy as I removed from the bag is now like fine, fine topsoil after being sifted. … [ Full reading ] Comments: 5 Too cold to put my new MM into my raised beds?? and Facebook SFG site 3/19/2023, 8:05 am by danieggert Hello from Burr Ridge Simple question, I hope. I have posted same question on the Facebook SFG site, but it is so hard to go back and find my answer, I am going to quit. Anyone else have that problem? I should have all of my first ever Mel's Mix complete very soon. It would be much, much easier for me to mix the big 3 components right in the empty beds in small batches. It is still cold … [ Full reading ] Comments: 4 Epsom salts for your veggie garden?? 6/18/2012, 8:03 pm by Debora Cadene Is this really good for the garden and if so, how do you personally use it? (I promise not to run to the garden and douse it with salt and water till I know how it works..  )Comments: 20 Baby Pools as Beds?! 3/14/2023, 4:00 pm by Jjean59 I have a couple of medium-sized heavy plastic baby pools that I am contemplating getting rid of, BUT my inner hoarder says that I could plant something in them if I just create drainage holes. Has anyone tried doing this? What is the best way to use them? I could grid them out and have a few corners left over for marigolds or something else small.  Comments: 8 Will landscape cloth stop roots? 1/4/2015, 2:28 pm by TSHRED I have a King Palm and Giant Birds of Paradise close to where my needs will go. Will landscape cloth underneath my beds prevent root invasion or are more drastic measures needed? The soil here drains very well.  Comments: 27 How long have you grown strawberries *in the same soil*? 2/25/2023, 10:18 pm by KiwiSFGnewbie Howdy folks, Just doing a bit of longer-term planning here. I already grow strawberries in containers but would like to get them in the ground as of next (southern hemisphere) summer. Since they prefer a slightly acidic soil I was thinking of a permanent strawberry bed, replanting one row each spring with new plants so that I always have enough plants that are in peak production. But then … [ Full reading ] Comments: 7 Galvanized Fire Ring for Rhubarb Raised Beds? 8/20/2018, 9:22 am by OhioGardener We have lost a lot of our Rhubarb this year due to the crowns rotting from continuous rain all summer long. So, I'm thinking of making a few small raised beds to put the rhubarb in. I have found some 36"x1' galvanized fire rings on sale for $25, and it seems they would be perfect. The 3' diameter would give the rhubarb room to spread out, and the 1' height would keep the crown out of the wet … [ Full reading ] Comments: 25 | Statistics We have 33779 registered usersThe newest registered user is IamKelleyP Our users have posted a total of 304649 messages in 23203 subjects Who is online?
