Hi guys, I have 9 garden beds, nothing compared to what you have. But this is my first year that all the structural work for garden is done. So now I can add compost, fertilize, start seedlings, all that good stuff. But with all the beds you 2 have, Could you give us a run down on what you normally would do to have your beds ready for spring. Me specifically I am putting 7 bags of compost on each bed and putting mulch on top of that. Hopefully it will do well like the backtoedenfilm i watch. I was curious of the fertilizers and/or pesticides you use before hand. I am staying all organic, if i can. I am making compost and worm tea. You 2 have such huge gardens I was wondering what you try to get done first before planting for spring. Thank you reading and please keep blogging, I can't get enough, it inspires me to keep growing, no matter what.
