We've been doing this "biodynamic" gardening in raised boxes for 12 years. It absolutely pays off! You'll reap rewards in 18" tall kale and chard, unbelievable tomatoes, cukes, string beans, etc. Our chard comes back every year a couple of times. Our fruit trees and grape vines are humongous. Your neighbors should be grateful for your efforts as all the nutrients you're feeding your own garden will spread around in all directions. We see it here, our oak trees reap the benefits of the garden nutrients. Makes the weeds taller too, unfortunately.
YAY! I know this all is very therapeutic for you as well. Nothing like watching things grow. There's a whole science to planting in the full moonlight. You could now write the "Farmers Almanac". |
