Raised Garden Bed
I was super fortunate to have some friends give us these 2 raised garden beds that they were not using! With it being mid June when I received them I wanted to get seeds in IMMEDIATELY in hopes of getting good immediate use out of the extra gardening space!
In the first garden box I took a bit of a risk in sowing some cooler weather crops, broccoli and carrots! This box is slightly shaded and I intend on doing what I can to keep the soil cooler. You will see I did mulch lightly with some glass clippings in this box in hopes it will help retain moisture and block the sun from hitting the soil as heavily. As my seedling emerge more I may add a little more grass clippings as well. I will say, these seedlings emerged quite quickly, especially my carrots in comparison to the first sow I did this season, so I was happy about that! I
Box two contains warmer weather crops, corn and beans. As I have now learned a little bit about growing corn, I decided I would give it a go and try growing some more!! Because who doesn't love FRESH CORN! These seedlings are looking amazing as well! I will in time mulch the bed with grass clippings as well BUT the urgency isn't as high since I do not have to shade this soil as much! It will however help with retaining moisture, so next mow I do, they will get some clippings!
Also keep in mind that each bed had two different veggies BUT they ARE compatible! Always something to keep in mind when gardening 😁
Happy Gardening!
