Learn how to prepare a raised gardening bed using a simple no-dig lasagne method, which we call "Compost as You Grow". Using this method allows you to begin building up stores of homemade compost while also growing wonderful vegetables. Effective & Easy! Build your raised bed with this simple 10 step process: 1. Cardboard sprinkled with Blood and Bone. 2. Cow Manure. 3. Lucerne sprinkled with Lime and Rock Dust. 4. Water - soak bed thoroughly. 5. Pea Straw layer topped with Blood & Bone and Coco Coir. 6. Water again. 7. Worm Castings. 8. Repeat steps 3-7 until filled. 9. Compost topping. 10. Water in with Instant humus. With a little care over the next few months the Lucerne and Pea straw layers will be composted, mostly by worms and microbes, providing my growing plants with nutrient-rich organic material.
