Been busy the past couple of days trying to make this old red clay dirt better to grow veggies in. I have tilled in close to a ton of sand, 800 lbs. of organic humus manure and around 400 pounds of 3 year old manure/hay compost into the soil of my 25ft x 25 ft little garden, it does look better but still has that "red clay" color a little. Got 60 Super Sweet onion sets and 25 garlic sets put out yesterday, rain today so will be a few days before i can get back in the garden. Have a blooming day!!
Wow, what a load of manure....sorry I just couldn't resist. That was a lot of work but the garden area really does look nice and inviting for all the future veggies.
Your veggies are going to love what you've done to your garden. Fingers crossed everything you plant grows well for you. Keep us updated on their progress won't you?
That's lovely--there is nothing like the sight of freshly turned, manured soil to make a gardener's heart sing!
That soil looks nice and fine,..good enough to sow seeds in,..you sure put in a lot of ingredients to make it fertile enough for growing almost anything,..a job well done.
