looks tasty to me, as does the asparagus . we are doing a small patch in a horse shit mound

Those are wild though, that's why they're so thin. Just finished planting some stuff right now as well. 90% onions lol

Next week we'll plant tomatoes probably 16-20 plants. We can them with garlic and our olive oil so we have tomato sauce year round

There's always something to be excited about it's all about your attitude.

Trying out rabbit manure this year, will also use it for my weed plants, along dome compost from the vineyards. Very interested in seeing how they like it compared to the soil mix I usually make. I usually buy bags of kelp, bonemeal, bloodmeal, stuff like that. It's a lot cheaper to just use shit though.

 

[shiva82]

use what you have available . we use a blend of composts , horse manure [the farm have a horse], and mineral granules too . cheap and cheerful

i have to sort my fruit trees out this week. make some drainage . going to skim the top layer of soil 1m radius round each tree, fork it like crazy add some wood ashes , some stone and manure , then tarp cover the area. will help neutralise the ph and add some food and aeration . its a flood plain lol. gets boggy . i'm amazed they are still alive

in 5 years time we will be walking through our own food forest . if we pull it off.
a drainage channel will need to be dug though .

Ashes are great for flowering cannabis too. I recently burned a big pile of branches and made a little pool of ashes for the hens. I read they use it to roll in it to get rid of parasites. I wasn't sure they were gonna use it but you can clearly see they have been rolling around in it haha. Nature knows best

I wish I could do that. Our well water is salty (we're next to the beach so subterranean currents mix with sea water). There's a limited amount of stuff you can grow well with salty water. Olive trees, almond trees, and the local tomato strain we have here which must be one of the few that likes salty water. For all the rest we hluse rainwater and although my deposit is very big there's only a limited amount of stuff we can grow with it. And I need some for the weed plants, they really love it too.

I'll offer you the same challenge with belching. I'm the undefeated champion of the world. I might be rusty since I stopped drinking beer though.
