I bought some organic soil from Home depot and put it in my plot. I underestimated how much soil I was going to need. I bought 6 bags and have come to find that i need around 8 more. I am going to go buy some more tomorrow and fill it in this weekend. The weather seems to be holding sort of constant so I may plant some of my seedlings or some new seeds directly in the ground. I want to see if this has any effect on the plants.
I have gotten my compost walls to a height I am happy with for now. I threw some sticks and some dead leaves in the bottom (the base for a good compost) and will begin to throw food waste into the pile. That will take a while to be usable so I am going to use my previous compost as soon as I have all the soil laid.
On Sunday there is a compost fair at Cooperative Extension from 12-4. I am going to see if I can learn anything new by attending.
