Roots in Raised Bed (leave as is & drink some cider instead)
In article , "George"
wrote: "Mike" wrote in message ... I've been doing SFG in raised beds for a couple of years now, and there is now an accumulation of left over roots in the beds from past plantings. I imagine they compost at some time, but do they compost quickly in the beds? Is it OK to leave the old roots in the beds or are they going to hinder roots/plants of future plantings? Thanks. Fukuoka farming - leave the roots in the soil to break down. Spread above soil grown plant detritus on the surface of the soil and your friendly worm mates will take care of the rest. Job done, sit back and enjoy a bottle of home brew cider. rob ANd then **** on any deserving fruit trees ;O) -- - Billy "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Arn3lF5XSUg http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Zinn/HZinn_page.html |
