Hello all! My name is Gwen and I live in Dallas, TX. I am going to plant my square foot garden tomorrow with the assistance of my wonderful man, Davy. I'm not sure which vegetables I'm going to plant; I'll just take a browse tomorrow at Whole Foods and see which seeds look good.
I first read about square foot gardening in organic gardening magazine last year. they didnt mention the book or raising or separating the beds, so my plan is just to mark out a 4x4 square in my yard with a one foot walking border on all sides. ive never had a garden before, so im very excited, especially at the chance to have several different crops with minimal work. gotta admit, im rather lazy. im just planning on getting a few bags of soil with compost already mixed in.
one question- how often do you guys water?
ill post some photos of my bed tomorrow!
