We can do that via our beach house on Lake of the Ozarks. This building is into its 3rd year as our seed starter place.
Big SW windows, thermal floor and a good working plan that we’ve tested in past years.
BTW;
We’re still piking Roma tomatoes and Poblano peppers. The little guys—cherry tomatoes, are done.
Garden didn’t do diddly this year, hoping to get some fall stuff in though. Just got a little rain here in East Texas, 2 inches long and slow over a couple of days so every drop soaked in.
Just put a few garlic pods in the ground, I look for the ones at the store with green sprouts sticking out. Soon as I get them established, no more planting, just dig them up in fall.
Asparagus will be ready to pick this spring, can’t wait. It’s the only thing still green in the garden. I’ll be mulching everything before long, that’s all I have to do to have it ready for next year.
Mulch is great. I’ve been using it for 30 years. No tilling, very little weed pulling, and it makes good fertilizer. I chop up dead leaves with the mower and spread it on the garden, at least 4 inches thick, and make sure I get some earthworms underneath. I have a great spot for night crawlers a few feet from the garden, just catch a few and pout them in the garden. They do the tilling for me. Not to mention helping fertilize the place...
Mulch also acts as insulation, winter and summer. The garden stays cooler in summer, holds moisture better and stays warmer in winter. I spend maybe 20 minutes a week pulling weeds. Most of the neighbors spend 2 hours a day...and I Can’t convince them mulch is a better way to go...my back loves it though.
