There is a small window between Spring/Fall (I plant those fall plants in Aug and Spring plants usually wont make it past July though I'm going to try to help extend them). What can I do to help add nutrients, strengthen the depleted soil, and also since I cant rotate, just help make the soil just as good as when I first added it?
Thanks in advance 
Also- I have a part time job at a coffee shop where I could literally bring home 15lbs of coffee grounds a week. When/how much coffee grounds would you add to your garden? Directly to where tomatoes/veggies are growing or add a composter? Thanks! |
I always side dressed each plant with a handful of coffee. If I got huge quantities, than I let it compost until I could till it in between plantings.
