  • Hi Ericka, Thank you for the warm welcome. I am new to composting, but I have become like a mad scientist. I have a two buckets(20 gallon buckets) of compost tea going at all times. Then my new project is a compost bin with a cold frame on top. My seedlings never get below 40 degrees at night and we have been down to 10 degrees here in Reno.

Ericka replied to Rachel Brumitt's discussion Building Good Soil For Raised Beds in Soil Builders
"The best way to garden here is directly in the ground, not raised beds, unless you are in a really rocky area up on the mountain. Sunken beds hold moisture better in our climate, and all that is really needed is adding organic matter, 50% compost to…"
