Hi, thank you, great series! My question is whether you can use purslane as a substitute for the clover. I rent a patch at the community garden and most people hate the stuff. This is only my 2nd try at a garden, and think it's pretty, so I let it grow in between my plants as living mulch when they're young, kind of like nursemaids. When the weather gets dry, I pull a lot up and sort of spread out the pulled up plants on the top of the soil, so now it's just regular mulch. Then a lot grows back, but I keep it further away from the bottoms of plants. Then I turn it all under in the fall. I have no idea if that's a good idea or not.

Man...I would love to plant some potatoes in that bed of woodchips. I took some potatoes and threw them on the ground of my garden and covered them with 8-10 inches of 1 yr old woodchips. I had the most beautiful potatoes ever!! Did you find that the bed dried out much? Happy gardening/farming!

Mark,
I have about 20 indeterminate tomato plants. They are planted in wood chips that are going on 4 years old. I used worm castings, coir, and organic soil amendment. They were planted too early but it was early or die situation. My question is this; when the weather turns hot and humid I lose nearly all my blooms around 95% of them I have planted them in the same place for 4 years and they do the same thing every year. They also get what appears to be early blight.
Any suggestions??? -
you have a very familiar voice ! do you sing?

nice video I like the way this is configured for companion plantings.

Hi, Nice job with trellis ! Also thanks for the tip about clover about keeping weeds at bay, I'm replacing my lawn in back yard with clover for last 2 years it almost completely took over that lawn and I stopped fertilizing it completely now, hope clover will produce nitrogen for it self.

Love watching your process ! Thanks for sharing !
-
I love the raised bed and the approach you're taking with it, Mark! I look forward to seeing how it turns out.

Nice work!!! Can't wait to see the finished root zone in October...

Im in central Jersey. I am having a big problem with early blight and aphids with my tomato plants. I think its because my soil is messed up. Do you have any suggestions as to what plant next year in my plot to help improve my soil? How long do I have to wait to plant tomatoes in the same area. Thank you, I enjoy your videos.

Do you normally plant your tomatoes this late or was this more for the videos sake? Just asking because I am in South Jersey and I planted my seedlings outside in the beginning of may. I am pretty much a beginner, this is the first time I started from seeds indoors. Anyway, love your channel.

Great video Mark.

Have you planted strawberries with tomatoes with good success before? I was about to do that a couple days ago but several companion planting guides say they are not compatible and some imply they are bad together. Something about Verticillium. I just don't know, so please don't take it as me challenging you. It would be good for me if I knew I could safely plant strawberries with tomatoes, and squash.

Looks great Mark. I'm knee deep in tomatoes already. thanks for the advice and videos and keep em coming.

How long before you need to rebuild the raised bed. I know you will get some settling and you can replace the lost inches but at some point I think that will be minimal.

I like how you companion plant. It will be interesting tinder the results.
