It's pretty easy especially if you have the space and the inputs...I figured if I bought the "platinum" Coast of Maine soil @ $25 /1.5cf then I would have spent over $700 for my summer grow...no thanks. I'm hoping to have some leftover from the 38x bins I have running this summer.
Finished VC...
I used the bins to go to my beach and collect seaweed....I spread all of this amongst the bins...first time experiment but I hope it will break down nicely in the VC...if so, that will def be an added nutrient bonus next year.
I upgraded the stacking (left old, right new) after @Itibitiguy kindly educated me that these could stack on themselves, so now I have them 3x high.
Good example of too much compost...need room for the food...I only made this mistake with a few.
I get a lot of this type of veg matter 5 days a week...
I put them on pallets and my tractor can just pick 6x full ones up and move them...they get heavy.
I'm working on starting a few bin now. That sea weed breaks down pretty quick. We would put it on my dad's potatoes and when you harvest you don't find very much left in the soil.
