Gardening 101
New to composting? Its a cinch. Here in Syracuse, NY where we get all four seasons, we really only have 3 that are beneficial in breaking down the matter to give us the stuff they call "black gold." Just start by putting your vegetable and fruit scraps in a pile in the sun (or a small composter), cover with soil and continue to do this to help the food materials to break down. Add grass clippings, shredded cardboard, cleaned eggshells, old plant material (as long as it is not diseased), and continue to make your compost "sandwich" covering with soil every few layers. Water, do not drench, but water enough to get the pile damp. Take a pitch fork and turn a couple of times as this aerates the pile. This enhances microbial activity which enhances the breakdown of the material into compost. When fully "done," compost should be light, fluffy and have a rich dark color like the picture to your left. You should never have a bad aroma coming from your pile if you are doing it correctly. It should be a "sweet" earthy smell. Never add dairy items (other than eggshells), meats or diseased plant materials.
Plant a fruit smorgashboard
I always wanted to be abe to go out my back door and just pick fresh fruits right off the vine! You too? Well now you can, and its sooo easy! Just make a 4x4 raised bed of cedar or any type of material that will contain your fruits.
Add soil, compost, more soil, more compost until full. Mix well. You can add plants (which is much easier than starting from seed) and water well. If you want to add fertilizer, use a slow release type like Osmocote. We have June bearing strawberries, black raspberries, blueberries red raspberries in our own beds and more for sale ~ give us a call, 315-456--8681, we'll hook you up with some very nice plants.
