The first photo is what we had to start with. The only thing growing in the back yard was grass and weeds. In the second photo a shed from Lowe's and cardboard from a new garage door put in place and ready for mulch. I hope to have a tomato plant, pepper plants and egg plants planted by the end of next week. a9l by john best, on Flickr WP_20150516_002 by john best, on Flickr
Oooh, I do like that shed! And I'm sure that the tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants will do well. Soon your new neighbors will be hanging over the fence, asking for advice about growing vegetables.
Love the shed John and I just know you're going to have a garden soon that will be the envy of the neighbourhood.
Big changes already. See you are using my favorite bed making procedure. I'd claim discovering it . But would probably called on that. It is the only way to refresh or start new beds according to Jewell. It is good to see you making those changes to your yard.
Thanks all but I don't think I will live long enough to make it look like this. 93 Hind View by john best, on Flickr
I agree...looking great. Years ago we had a metal shed and everytime it rained things got wet inside. I am sure they have improved by now in how they are put together...
I have never tried that way of getting rid of grass, we always dug it out but your way seems soooooooooooooo much easier. I haven't added any new plants yet to my flower beds, still chilly here but a warm up is predicted. Please make sure you show us pictures of things in the ground. Our nurserys were packed today with people wanting to plant things this weekend but most of us are holding off because of our frost last night...
Coming along nicely! I used that method twice here in my new place and you couldn't ask for a better way. I have another area I am getting ready to cover up with cardboard and soil and mulch to prepare for next year. Good luck with your veggie plants, nothing like a vegetable from your own backyard.
