Raised Garden

Question

I’ve had a raised garden for 3 years. This will be the 4th year. I’ve added garden soil from a reputable nursery–not that bagged store-bought stuff every year for the past 3 years. I’m not going to do that this year since it’s plenty deep enough now. So, what do I do this year? Please advise step by step info.

Answer 1

I would seem that you have already done everything except planting!

Testing your soil to make sure that it is appropriate for planting is a good added measure to ensure soil health:
