  • @ggwtv
    @ggwtv10 күн бұрын

    The information on growing food in the examples we provided is not exclusive for application in home gardens. But this episode was created to show both edible and ornamental options for growing in this region. That limits the time we can dedicate to single topics. Perhaps we will be able to spend more time on that at another time.

    Does not a grass mulch rob the soil of Nitrogen as it breaks down.....?

  • @ggwtv
    @ggwtv14 күн бұрын

    No. As a mulch, only the top 1/16th of an inch has any nitrogen depletion. This is true for any natural mulch. The source for this analysis is from Washington State university I believe. But, if you were to mix it into the soil, then yes. That is an entirely different scenario.

    I assume a big reason for you higher bill is due to the lights and germination heat mats. You shouldn’t need to use them all year. I sow seeds all year as well but only use my lights and heat mats in the colder months.
