Q3: Welcome to Amish Style Gardening.

Update on growing potatoes in the winter.

No bad frost yet - praise the Lord !

How the veggie shed look like walking up to it, via the chook yard.

View of veggie shed, potatoes are fallen over.

Easy to notice the grow bag openings.

Look for dark black holes. (purple arrows)

Cabbages growing nicely.

Big bed plants not doing well on straw with little soil.

This is to be expected since the compost has not finished it's process yet, hence no real soil.

Another view of cabbages - not growing well on straw.

Carrots growing among weeds.

New potatoes come up in new beds.

View along the straw path of the veggie shed

New tomato, and celery growing.

Tomatoes with comfrey/

Spinach without holes in leaves this time.

Snow peas growing slowly but attacked by birds.

New metal box waiting to be filled with straw grass.

Straw mulch to be soil compost for potatoes.

New straw goes in as the rotted straw sinks down.
