I'll go first. I've had great success with straw bale gardening, especially tomatoes and squash.

This year I'm trying the Ruth Stout method or deep mulch. So far I'm growing peas and cabbage. They're still tiny, and it might still frost, but l hope not.

I'm just a hobbyist, trying to prepare my noggin for whatever lies ahead.

Experimented with straw core and no dig last year. Unfortunately my mulch straw had still active wheat seeds in it so I had quite some growth on my strips. But for the first year I was very happy with my harvest. I still have beet roots and potatoes in my root cellar

Are you in Germany now? If not where are you roughly? ( Just lie about a place that's similar)

I am in Germany 🙆
