Im like you I get so excited about my garden and growing anything..Something else I failed to mention is that after the season you can compost old bales, or even save them and next year you can spread them a little and put seed potatos between the ground and the straw you'll be real surprised thin skinned tasty taters. Ive heard some even get two years out of their bales but I have a cheap ready supply and plan to start fresh every year and compost the old bales into my garden. Guess what yall my neighbor that i get my bales from is cleaning his barn out where he had 3000 bales of wheat straw and might i say he had alot of loose straw from busted bales and such he informed me today that he was bringing me a dumptruck load of the loose straw. Im gonna have alot of mulch for my garden...wheeee heeeee..Gizz
