How to Care for Organic Vegetables

I got the one and cast this down okay. So now we’re going to do this, yeah I know this has cactus mix on it. There’s a really nice sandy soil. Hey! How are you doing? A very nice job in putting the raised beds together, I think that this one is a taller raise bed than this one even though it looks lower, I don’t know if they went down but it looks like a taller raised bed because this is a really nice size for a raised bed and a raised bed shouldn’t grow seven to 10 more times food in this the same environment a controlled environment. And I’m basically adding a mix of compost, a little bit of rock dust, I should just taught you right that and I have my own organic fertilizers which I make and added to it. And now it’s in the process of putting here the variety because basically, what I did here, you see this is a—it’s really a pomp and cactus mix but for vegetables, it’s a sand mix. Let me see where the ingredients so we here somewhere. Basically various products, pumice and sand, a really nice mix for vegetables. One of the things about compost is it is little too rich for vegetables to get started. And once the vegetables are growing, they all have the compost but when they’re small, they like it to be here on mellow environment. They don’t want to be stressed out.
So we’re taking this really nice sandy mix here. We’re going to use this as a top layer as a mulch. You see, we’re going to layer it all on and it’s going to be like a mulch that’s going to go on top of here because you always want a—when the process of well I did before I plant, I mix the soil everything together, get all of these together here before we do our vegetables. So I’m going to go ahead and finish this and I will come back, and I’ll start planting the vegetables okay. So thank you. I’ll be back as soon as I get the rest of this done.

It would be so much better if you can make your own compost to use in your garden. Plant your tomatoes in a location where they do not block the light from the other vegetables.

Always use organic fertilizers. Always use heirloom vegetables
