Hi fellow gardeners, I'm looking into trying lasagna bed's, does anyone have knowledge about this? if so please share, it sounds like a lot less work and a interesting way to do composting. Please help floridagirl. |

You're right, flagirl. It's a lot less work and mine is a lot more fertile. The only thing I'd caution you about is ensuring it gets sufficient moisture to break the various layers down into usable soil. I put too much straw on part of mine and had to add more compost and manure and wait another year for the straw to break down. |

Thanks guy's, I'll check out those links you posted, hopefully I'll have enough compost and hay with chicken manure in it to do all 3 sections of my veggie garden. My motto is to work smart and not hard, this looks like it would be a very smart way to garden. floridagirl. |
