GARDEN BOX CONSTRUCTION | |
TIPS: - Lining the box with a tarp, then placing old wood shakes prevents digging damage to irrigation or ties. Shakes can be raised in fall to add extra leaves, or as loam develops from decomposing/worm digested organic material. - Using micro head sprays and 1/2" soft poly line utilizes water most effectively, all without winter freezing damage. - 70% less water lost to evaporation by keeping the earth completely covered with leaves. Pack the boxes in the fall with leaves, and save some bags for mid to late summer re mulching. The worms will love you, let them do the rotor-tilling! Oh Yes...also....NO WEEDING! Deep mulch will prevent weeds seeds from getting sunlight. See more from the rest of this website.
