>>995556>>995769>>995375>>995757The most I do is buy sand now. Prior to buying it, I scooped it out of the local river. Compost + sand is the best answer for problems with local soils. The raised bed in these images is full of nothing but compost. I'm spending today and tomorrow mixing it with a little over 1 ton of sand.
The fertilizer is the plant compost, horse manure, chicken manure and urea from urine. It is all free too. Get some chickens and fence them in over your garden plot for a couple weeks. Move the fencing to a new plot. They will till the soil and add fertilizer to it. In a few months it will be ready to plant.
>>995064What I did early on was to dig a few holes. One per plant and treat those holes as though they were containers. That allowed me to use as little good soil as possible until I was able to make more good soil using compost and manures.
>>995640>>995658Yes, you can tear those apart once they are exhausted, and make many of your own kits with them. The ones I got from
fungi.com actually had instructions on how to plow it into your garden plot to help your plants and get mushrooms a year later or so (pearl oyster). You can also make more from each mushroom via culturing, spores, or just the stem bottoms.
