No pictures today kids. It has been snowing, melting, then snowing again. The yard is still just as brown as 2 weeks ago. Plus, it's 10 PM, so it's a week bit dark for snapping pics.
Anyways, the wee little garden square is more than half planted. I am using the Square Foot Gardening method this year, to keep it from going too nuts. I already know i will need at least 2 more 4x4 squares to plant what I need.
Each square starts life as 2-2x8s, 8 ft long.l They're screwed together and lined with a hearty amount of newsprint (no coloured inks though). I throw finished compost, peat moss and cheap potting soil on in layers until it is full up to the top.
The box is divided in 1' squares, and I plant a different vegetable in each square. It l.ooks very neat and orderly so far.
Al.so, i ripped down my fence.l More about the how and why tomorrow.
