Last year I had maters in 20 fifteen gallon containers. I drilled two 2 in holes in bottom of containers and buried the bottom four inches in potting soil. There's a large population of earthworms where the containers were.. Was going to start germination of seeds yesterday but all I got done was marking the solo cups! I accidentally took two doses of Eliquis in the morning and was totally useless for the rest of the day.. Rain tomorrow.
Just went old school ! . On my knees all morning on first bed and got grass out. Plenty of worms! . Plenty of time to rest after I'm dead! . Tired but going to get mix on top to help shelter the worms. Feels great to work in the soil!. Now I know what Steve McQueen meant when he said, " we need to get back to the dirt." . Jimbo
