Rubber mulch has a bunch of chemicals in it , keep it away fro your veggie garden beds
What about diatomaceous earth? Does that really work?
I had to get my soil from Amazon.
The jury is still out on mulch. Does anybody here have experience with colored mulch? It can get really windy here at times (ie, possible tornado here today) and them lil wood chips ain't gon cut it. So i started looking at rocks, saw they come in colors, researched effects, etc.
I was thinking about the white rocks (+shade) for greens; red rocks for peppers and tomatoes (supposedly increases production).
diatomaceous is great, i started using it early last year and wont ever go without it again, i put on my tomatoes and kale, i actually put it on everything but concentrate on tomatoes and kales, especially once they are established , keep in mind it kills almost all "bugs" so if you like butterflys etc around your garden it will keep those away too
i use mulch to keep weeds away from around my garden but obviously never inside the garden, mulch with "preen" is supposed to be best for it, but you want to again use it around ur garden never inside of it
rubber mulch like i commented to the other post has a ton of chemicals in it, stuff is good for industrial applications since it never looses color , never degrades etc, but you want to keep away from anywhere basically where humans will be on a regular

When I put my hand in the soil, I get extra relaxed, the feel of soil is damn near hypnotically peaceful. Might get me a pot of dirt and sit in front of TV and just chill.

I know!
That's why i was looking at colored rocks instead. Whatchu think?
I know!
pea gravel is what you want to go with as far as rocks, never really looked into colored rocks, unless the color comes naturally I would stay away
Calcium. Funny cause chickens will lay soft eggs which is a calcium deficiency, then you use the eggshells to boost your garden. Throw it in with the dirt, gets rid of end rot on plants, helps them grow.

Any brehs got tips on making an herb garden? All I got is an apartment so outside of a few plants I really want to get a herb garden growing in kitchen.
GONNA DO THIS IN MY LIVING ROOM WINDOW.
IM HOPING BY NEXT YEAR TO GROW ENOUGH VEGETABLES TO COMPLETELY CUT OUT BUYING VEGGIES FROM THE STORE.

We haven’t been getting a lot of sun.
My poor little tomato plant isn’t looking good, and my seedlings haven’t sprouted.

Just curious, why did you plant kale during this time of the year?MY KALE SPROUTED.
Won’t the heat and sun wilt them?
