Hi all,pleased to have found you :) I've got lots of well rotted manure and going to try growing potatoes in tyres.What would you say is the best mix of soil and manure?
Would I be best doing this now,many thanks
how well - rotted? (can you identify any of the constituents)
Welcome Malfuntional to A4A. I also am interested in how much manure to use. One of my allotment neighbours has spread loads of it on his plot. I can't help thinking he may have overdone it.
Part of my plot was 100% gravel and I added a load of manure possibly as much as 50:50. I grew sweet corn, beans and courgettes on it. But I was actually very surprised it did so well.
It looks like compost.I was reading that in a bed in would be a good idea to cover with black plastic about now,would this work with tyres also?
Ta :)
