    Hey guys, I recently (as in 2 days ago) planted a couple boysenberry bareroot plants. I planted them in my garden along with a brown turkey fig tree right outside. I added some worm castings and mycorhizal fungi with everything. I have mushrooms coming up everywhere after a nasty storm...

    I know it's going to take time to get everything right. It's in the experiment stage for me right now. I had to get my potatoes in the ground yesterday because they were sprouting and getting a soft. Hopefully they really grow.

    I just started my journey on a BTE garden. I finally got done laying the wood mulch yesterday. I have my nasty yucky NM soil then composted horse manure mixed with hay, then cardboard and the mulch on top. I'm going to add a bit of my chicken compost on top by sprinkling it over the top. I have...
