In our video series, we learn that good compost is vital to gardening success.
Master Gardener Ben Hunter's tips on compost:
Avoid Compost made with wood chips, clay or dirt dyed black or raw manure.
Fully composted, material needs 2+ months of decomposition.
The only medium going into a raised bed should be ready-to-go compost. Do not put any type of bottom on your raised bed. This included wood chips, fabric, paper and wood as a few examples.
Raised beds are ready to be planted in as soon as they contain compost.
