Hi all,
Need to top my garden beds up again this winter, they've sunk to about half the height of the garden bed again from last year.
I started off these garden beds a few years back, and used the no-dig technique where you layer some newspapers to smother the grass/weeds you lay the bed on, then use alternate layers of materials. In the first year, I used chicken manure and lucerne hay, and the plants grew thick and strong, but very little fruit.
This year I was looking to top the beds up with the following:
- Sheep Manure
- Coco peat
- Garden mix from a local nursery
- Mulch of sugar cane mulch
Worms love the coco peat, so I was hoping it would attract even more worms to the area.
