I find that learning about gardening is inexaustable and there is soo much more to it than I have done so far.. (there really is a lot that is possible in a mediumish sized city lot) the latest things I've been hearing about are sheet mulching (although I think that is similar to lasagna gardening) and I'm curious to read Edible Landscaping. And learning more about the health of the soil/building that in different ways, etc.. I would LOVE to take on chickens and bees in the near future, but for now, this is what we can maintain. We don't plan to "expand" too much this year, but perhaps next year, we will. It is important to take it at a "sustainable" pace so it continues to be fun.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18191546922760384745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8665251668379899072.post-10952972274766314842010-03-30T17:21:07.730-07:002010-03-30T17:21:07.730-07:00What a great post. I like that you explained year...What a great post. I like that you explained year by year what things you did in the garden. I think starting with one bed is a great idea. It can get overwhelming if you don't. <br /><br />Happy Gardening.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07967372439743853589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8665251668379899072.post-26361830738286907382010-03-29T09:15:09.444-07:002010-03-29T09:15:09.444-07:00Great blog!

You need to be careful and not use too much compost here; it's too wet already! I've been using his fertilizer mix and it's really, really easy, cheap and effective. Looks like you might want deeper beds too; Steve address root systems and plant spacing in Growing Veg. When it Counts. I highly recommend a drip system, it's worth every penny and saved my garden last summer during the heat wave.
