Gardening advice

 You guys, it’s taken me six years of failed gardening to achieve this

🤩 Wherever you are, don’t give up! Here is my fertilizing process:
- Top the beds once in early spring and once again in early fall with good compost mixed with blood meal and bone meal
- Plant each start with a scant handful of worm castings
- Water with diluted fish emulsion every three weeks
- Side dress established pepper plants with a fertilizer called “Big A$$ Peppers” 😂 It’s a 4-6-4 NPK, as they need lots of P to make those blossoms nice and big
- Other tips include sprinkling flower and herb seeds all around the edges of your beds or plot in February, even if it’s not warm enough for them, it’s good to get the seeds in the ground! And of course, buck the rules of spacing - fill up your beds! You’ll never need mulch and your garden will look lush 🌷
Thanks to all for such good advice over the years!
