Spuds grow like weeds

Posted by Alan Singleton on

Believe it or not, these spuds have been planted the recommended distance apart. With gardening you never stop learning. The more compost I add to the soil the better my harvests have been. I also added plenty of rock minerals before planting this year.

After that they have been ignored because of the amount of work I have had on. Previous years I have trailed hilling them with different material (straw-mulch-soil), did not make any difference. This year I just used the cheap bulk commercial compost, looks like it worked a treat.

  • Just finished planting out my two new water savers gardens with corn, zucchini, tomatoes, beans, snow peas, carrots, parsnips, basil, lettuce, eggplant and capsicum, now the rains started – perfect! ?
