It is my first year planting. Should I cover my peas at night to protect them? If so, at what temperature should I cover them?

Much more traumatic than I expected. Unfortunately ours was a move to the city so no gardening for me until the next move :( Hopefully the new garden will be even more spectacular than the previous one.

I was getting choked up thinking about you leaving your lovely house and side yard. But the new garden looks wonderful, what a view and such potential. Hopefully you still have my email address, can you send me yours again as all of my contact info on my hard drive is non-recoverable.

I hope previous owners haven't used pesticides, etc.<br /><br />I'm wondering how you will remove ground cover without disturbing existing soil biological activity. On a smaller scale, I would spread newspaper and straw on the newspaper and leave it there through the winter, but here? Perhaps one of your new neighbors is a farmer who could plow and work in (preferably horse) manure on the plot?<br /><br />Looking forward to your solutions, which I am sure will be expert and creative, and wishing you all the pleasure of a "clean slate."Ralphnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-88291699238134946342013-08-29T22:57:32.580-04:002013-08-29T22:57:32.580-04:00With you new space have you considered keeping chi...With you new space have you considered keeping chickens?

I took cardboard boxes from the move, and lay them out on top of the lawn and got mushroom compost and put it on top of the cardboard. In fall you could maybe put layer of leaves first. 2 Months later I was planting, although the compost was a little strong still and I had a little burn on a few plants. Its great soil now though. nBoerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02628827839395044836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-19531415403703181282013-08-25T22:17:13.854-04:002013-08-25T22:17:13.854-04:00It looks lovely.
