  1. In no-dig gardening, never leave soil bare! Keep it covered with crops or green manures like crimson clover in spring or winter field beans in autumn. After growth, chop & drop as mulch. This feeds soil life, suppresses weeds & protects structure. 🌱 #NoDig #GreenManure #SoilHealth

  11. A rye grass green manure has done its job over winter. I lifted it with a ho-mi and left it on the surface to continue to break down before the bed is planted up next month.

    On other beds I’ve cover killed the rye grass. Both methods work well.

    Some bramble roots have been forked up and removed from another bed. Some still need to be removed another time.

    This is as much soil disturbance as I’ll ever do. Minimum till rather than no dig. #GreenManure #CoverCrops #Mulch #Allotment #Gardening

  22. @MaQuest I signed up to freegle after seeing this toot. Today I picked up a no longer needed but very handy dog fence.

    It’s now on the plot to help keep some of the wildlife off the crops later this winter and into the next growing year. #Recycle #ReUse #Repurpose #SolarPunk #Recycling #Freegle #FreeStuff #GreenManure #NoDig #Allotment

  27. Time is nearly up on the old plot. The shed and greenhouse are now empty. I’ve lots of plants, two water butts and some odds and sods left to move over to the other site.

    Less than a month from now I will be able to call the new plot, the plot.

    The old plot will forever be the old plot. #Allotment #GreenManure #SoilHealth #NoDig

  34. #GreenManure–cropRotation can regulate soil nutrient cycling and decrease the reliance on #NitrogenFertilizers. Meixia Liu et al. explored the effects of #Leguminous green manure–crop rotation on soil #EnzymeActivity and #Stoichiometry.

  35. @Hellybootwader Keep going. I’m hoping for similar outcomes here as people start to see there are alternative to digging. Working more with nature goes without saying and not before time I’m starting to see little changes here on our site.

    Two other plots are using green manures over larger area on their plot this autumn after experimenting last year. Another two plots are being converted to no dig for next year.

  36. We’re coming in to the start of mypex season, but not on my plot. Living roots and green manures all the way.

    I’ve the last of the dried bean harvesting and a couple of other jobs to do before sowing the broad and field beans for overwintering in November.

    The local wildlife has been busy hunting for worms in the beds.

  45. Lacy #phacelia aka #purple #tansy is native to NW Mexico & SW USA - it's in the borage family. I've been using them as part of pollinators gardens & as a natural aphids #PestControl for food plants. This pretty flowering #plant attracts hoverflies & those insects love eating aphids. When it's done flowering - you can cut it down & use cuttings as #GreenManure.
