Re: permaculture garden beds/amended
You built up the organic matter in the soil with your mulching. This
process should be maintained with appropriate materials if possible.
I use hay underneath my citrus trees, which are the only things that
I find it necessary to fertilize chemically (anyone have any
realistic suggestions for organic citrus growing?). If you don't
mulch, you will have to weed. Gardening requires time and effort. I
suggest rationing it if possible so that you don't spend more than a
couple of hours a day at it. If you want to feed yourself, you'd
better plan on this much time on average.
