So I'm in a new area, and new to the outdoor growing environment.
But there are some dense woods around me, that no one ever travels.
What I have worked out for a plot:
I have found spots that are open (for the most part) to sunlight and have access to constant moist soils. The soil is a soft dark Humus rich Loam that is in a low boggy type spot. The underbrush is rich and green even today. After watching the area all last grow season, this area stays moist, not wet, all grow season. This is a rotting forest covered in mosses and maintains pretty high humidity.
Now that you have a background of the area, here are the questions:
Apart from things to worry about (animals, humans, etc.) what things should I do to prepare my area for next season?
Since the forest is heavily rotted, how much nutritional suppliment should I add to VEG, if any?
Since the soil should stay pretty moist, consistantly on its own, how sparatically can I check it?
Initially I'll go through all my remaining freebies I've collected over the years. I have some JLP mountain jam seeds that I'll try initially.
Like I said, I'm knew to outdoor and the outdoor growers "schedule" any early insight is heavily appreciated.
Thanks a bunch,
wickyd
