Description
Athttps://www.charlesdowding.co.uk/post/trial-beds-dig-no-dig-plantings-and-results-2013-2018 you can see how I created this no dig bed on weedy pasture, and have maintained it since 2013; this is its fifth year.
Harvests since I uploaded this video were 4.4kg potatoes, 0.4kg peas and 11.9kg onions, making the total from these first plantings of 53.06kg/116.7lb.
There will be the same again or more from the summer plantings, all on a bed of 5x16ft/1.5x5.5m.
