↑This was how it was in 2022 when I first got the walls up.↑
Last year, I did practically nothing in the garden. I am feeling a bit better about stuff now, so I've been busting my butt.
I first removed the center section (I had it intended as a walk space so I wouldn't harm the plants, it was too narrow for that, so it was wasted space) then I doubled the length
Ladies and Germs, I am here to tell you that new section busted my ba**s, so full of roots and rocks.
I actually blew a GFCI outlet at one point.
That was the end of day two days ago, I was finding some strange, cat shaped roots.
↑The Roots of all Evil↑
End of day yesterday. I SINNED at one point, took my chain saw and got the chain into the dirt a little.
Bad Jerry, very bad.
That was an all day job
So this morning, I tilled through just trying to get it homogenous, then added a barrow load of REAL MULCH from my pile in the back
A bag of "Black Kow" Manure and a bag of potting soil all tilled in together
THEN, I readjusted the irrigation heads.
It is still spraying outside the margins at the middle, but it definitely reachs both ends.
I will put some potted things there to make use of the over spray
I'm just making more and more work for myself ha ha.
