Garden Design - Straw Bale Gardening

Everyone is familiar with using straw for drinking or drinking fluids in the form of juice, soft drinks and cold drinks, etc.. But the straw can be more productive than when used for construction or landscaping.

Tightly bound bundles of straw can serve as an ideal host for growing plants. However, gardening is different from bales of straw. Gardening by the methods are quite useful for those with knee problems or do not want to create chaos that comes with gardening soil. All information is provided to me by one of my acquaintance, who is a fan of gardening! I also said some gardening straw bale approach.

Straw Bale Gardening techniques

Method 1

There are variations in the approach to gardening, but the basics are the same. To begin, you must have straw bales a good, strong. After deciding on the number of bullet, placed in the desired location. Arrange the balls together in a line to the string must be on the floor. It resembles a garden bed with this practice.

If you have a backyard, then this is the icing on the cake, if not choose a comfortable and roomy. Be sure to keep valuables away from the point that once it gets wet, place can be a little dirty. Within the first three days of water bullet twice a day. From day 4-7, the bullet heated and begins to rot. If by chance the bullet spring, it is still a problem. Simply cut or a knife bales. After day 7, where a layer of weed resistance, compost soil on top of the bullet. Now plant your seeds or transplants. In the case of plants, keep your hands to push shovel enough land to keep their plants in the bullet. Be careful that string does not break by doing this. Includes items such as land-use software to increase plant growth or chemical fertilizers and nutrients to the soil.

Method 2

In some ways, the first step is the same. But here, in this way, from day 4-6, sprinkle a bundle per day with a half cup of ammonium nitrate. Then, water and bullets. Replacing now 7-9 by reducing the amount of ammonia in a cup quarter. Bal water again. At 10 days, add one cup of fertilizer per well and do not forget water! Once this is complete, move the plant through wounds wedge to pit for each plant. For best growth, the plants until the first leaf and close the gap as possible. Specific methods are suitable for the garden and also for plants that grow on the surface.

Keep watering bullets every day, because it is necessary to keep the bales damp. Another important thing is that plants can adapt to many (if not more) than traditional gardening. The best part about this method is that it keeps the weeds away. Straw bale gardening is "saved" to get the feeling that something is wrong with the absence of private garden.
