August is an opportunity to get set up and ready to go for the growing seasons ahead – what a difference when you hit spring with your vegie garden + greenhouse sorted, and your chooks in good form.
Here are the essentials:
- check in with your soil and choose what to plant where, based on the health of each bed eg: greencrops in poor soil, heavy feeders in excellent soil.
- sow lots of soil building greencrops to rejuvenate tired soil, or as perfectly timed pre cursors to hungry October plantings like pumpkins and corn.
- feed your garden just right: not too much and not too little.
- and be sure to wait until conditions are right for each crop, before planting – my monthly guide will help you choose if you are unsure.
These are your gardens nuts and bolts, the basics that hang it all together. There is no wonder product out there that will bring as good results!
Yours in the earth,
