I have my new bed defined at least and got the first pass of organic material dumped on top. Getting it ready for spring

That's beautiful…. I am behind lol

Lol it's just now cool enough to work outside

It was low 40s last night here. This weekend's project is to turn the middle strip into a tented grow space

Tented clear like a greenhouse?

Some organic material here top

Looks awesome sir! Any specific plans? Looks like a good size growing space

Right now I'm thinking pumpkins but could change half a dozen times by spring 🤣

I know how that be.

Excellent start my fren!

I remember reading after I did a similar start to a garden bed that in the first year or two the brown matter emits a lot of carbon. (I believe carbon, I’m going off memory that I think nostr:npub1f5pre6wl6ad87vr4hr5wppqq30sh58m4p33mthnjreh03qadcajs7gwt3z discussed)

If you care to look further into this, planting things that like this condition for the first year or two may be beneficial when ‘breaking in’ a new hugle garden.

Thanks! I have heard it called a couple of different things. I first heard it called lasagna gardening or no till layer garden. I have a homesteading book that gives a simplefied plan that I am using here.

Right on.

I’m curious if it touches the starting few years.

Has basic info on it. I spelled it wrong.

Hügelkultur gardening is what i meant. And also called lasagna gardening, you’re right.

This will be great, as long as you don't till everything in the carbon won't bind up all the nitrogen. If pee on it as much as you can before you plant, you will get a nice bost of nitrogen to help break everything down. Keep adding more material on top throughout the season too. Build up as much organic material as you can. If you want, get some composted manure and add a couple scoops to the hole when planting the veggies.
