Small Garden
CLEMON:
If you want to plant seeds then once the bales are conditioned then you put a layer of soil down and plant the seeds. For plants, create a space, put in a little soil and then the plant
Farmer Jon:
Looks real nice. I was going to try that with the straw bales but then changed my mind. Instead of using plastic for a weed barrier I busted open the straw bales and spread it on the ground. That worked pretty good. Then I just till it all up in the spring and start over. I didn't want to pull up all that plastic.
Flyin6:
Very interesting!
I grew up North of you near the chesapeake Bay in a once little town, Abingdon, Maryland. Dad grew everything in his gardens. I was the weed puller and harvester. Things grow very well in that area. I so loved the corn, and how they cooked it!
Carry on!
