    We have got ours in with about 4 rows of green beans, a few maters, lots of peppers, about a half row of chard, maybe 6 hills each of Candy Lope, Squarsh, & Cucumbers, plenty of onions, a few more carrots & radishes. We are still plucking Kale, Collards, & Cabages too & will plant a few okra soon too. I am going to try some Red Okra again. Has any of you all tried any of that Dr. JimZ Chicken Soup for the Soil?

                      GWG8541 It is apparently an organic, mineral laden fertilizer of sorts that The Old Farmer’s Almanac promotes quite a bit. You might try doing a search for it & see what comes up.

                                Jonathon That looks real good. Believe it or not, I am still hand forking this 30 x 40 plot since coming here 20 years ago after having to get rid of my tractor with the beast tiller on it from Italy. I know those plots will do you right.

                                      Jonathon No tomatoes? No peppers? Yellow Squash? Did you construct a raised garden like I had built?

                                        Okay, so, looks like I’m gonna have to get involved in this post a little. We’ve got blueberries, strawberries, zucchini, basil, carrots, sugar snap peas, broccoli, Brussel sprouts, bell peppers, and maybe a few other things I’ve forgotten.

                                        Shout out to Brett Walton for letting me use his tiller!

                                        Jonathon You need to get horse watering troughs for planters above ground. No bending over, they retain water and heat, hardly have to weed. I am converting most of my raised beds to these. All I have to do is weed wack or spray around them.KIMG0388.JPG By the way this was last summer, no planting until next week when the frost danger should be done here.

                                          johnsbrewhouse Wow, those look great! I have been thinking of some ideas for that for several years to convert from the normal beds/row. I was going to use Hog pen or coral panels with chicken wire & straw. Have some trees I could cut to initially fill the bottoms. Might help keep the chickens & critters out too & definitely the bending & weeding, especially since we still hand fork. Just have not gotten around to it yet. Yours look absolutely great though.
