How We Fixed Square Foot Gardening And Grow More Food, Intensively!
We are huge fans of intensive gardening and integrate a lot of square foot gardening practices into our growing efforts. That said, the square foot gardening technique, as written in Mel Bartholomew's book is not as good as it can be!
A lot of newer growers fall into the trap of square foot gardening and think it's the solution for growing everything. That couldn't be further from the truth! In fact, it's a very poor technique for some plants and the smart grower will use alternative techniques to grow these things.
Over the many years we've practiced SFG and other intensive intensive gardening, this video discusses all of the major changes we've made to the technique as far as we practice it. In our opinion, we've improved on the practice and are finally quite happy with the food it produces in our gardens.
