From scratch
Excited about my new beds 4' wide by 18" deep section is riverbottom top soil.
It is tapered back a little further into the hill, I will grow some perennials here and there outside the "deep " zone. I plan on a summer cover crop of cowpeas, sunflowers and assorted random annual flowers and brassicas. This should start adding organic matter. Through the summer and leave a nice mulch when I mow it down and let winter weathering do the rest. [IMG]http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y79/Bryanccfshr/IMG_0861_zpsstrntk86.jpg[/IMG] |
Sounds like a fantastic start to me. :)

You are off to a great start there. In fall you can add all of the leaves that you can get your hands on. That should really help to improve your soil.

Yeah I have a ton of cottonwoods in the neighborhood.
