Hello fellow gardeners!
I am preparing my very first raised bed (to grow vegetables) for its first growing season and am curious as to what you all have found to be a good compost, one that can be bought at a big box store. My long term plan is to have several raised beds, but for now I want to see how I do with the one, so I don't want to buy a whole truckload or anything like that just yet. I am doing the layering method (cardboard, trunks, branches, leaves, top soil), and am at the top soil level and my next step is the compost. Also, what are your thoughts on the bagged (yes, I know bagged is the expensive route) raised bed garden soils in combination with compost?
I sure appreciate any and all answers/tips/tricks/suggestions. Thank you!!
