    Oh my, I'm so ready to plant flowers. It's been in the 70's the last couple days in Michigan so I'm getting ready for the local greenhouses of open ( I have a list of opening date thanks to my friend). I've been working on pressure washing and getting those things done. Pots and baskets are out and cleaned, just need soil and fertilizer. I'm ready to go!

All the ground moles holes have been filled ( of course the dogs helped dig them cause they like to catch them). We have fencing that needs to be replaced so that will take a bit

  • @tyleranderson4852
    @tyleranderson4852 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey there! I have had the same issue with my raised beds over the years especially when I first built them. I found the answer to the problem of getting dry compacted sides and corners in beds build with wood. It is caused by the wood simply wicking moisture out of the soil on the side that is most exposed to direct sun. Depending on your set up sometimes adding a layer of pebbles between the wood and soil helps or just use something that separates it and it will fix the issue! I have also used just a double layer of wood in the past and that has worked. I have also created thin beds that ring the main bed and plant that with herbs or marigolds or whatever will provide shade for the side of the main bed . 😊

    Excited about your spring planting plan!!! That's unfortunate about the compact areas in your bed. That may mean you don't have enough worm activity in that bed to help keep the soil loose. I don't know if you ever focus on insect beneficials in the soil but maybe that can be a future focus so that the soil is vital and loose, the soil insect beneficials get meals, and you get great crops thus creating a nice raised bed ecosystem. ♻
