Chillin' In The Garden
First time gardener this year. In anticipation, I started composting my goat/chicken/pig poo and bedding last year, so I had plenty of compost. When I filled my containers, I added compost along the bottom til about half full, then topped off with organic potting soil mix. I mixed the layers a bit, then planted. During the summer, I top dressed with a little extra compost. My question is: what do I do for next year? I get some sand in my compost, as we have beach-like soil, and I invariably get some sand with poo collection. My containers are generally large (3’ x 6’) so I won’t be emptying them out before spring. Should I add anything besides new compost in the spring?
