Default Soil Prep

Alright, I took a train ride to my spot today...



After 30 minutes or so of walking through dense bush I arrived...


Like I said yesterday, there is no homes, businesses' or any signs that someone visits here. I dug my five holes, removing vegetation and roots...





I got my supplies and mixed.



Peat Moss 40%
Perlite 25%
Blood Meal 5%
Bone Meal (Not Pictured) 5%
Building/masonary sand (not pictured) 10%
Worm Castings (not pictured) 15%

I mixed everything up in a garbage bag. I started with a small amount of soil mix in the bottom of each hole, which I mixed with the regular soil. Then another larger layer of soil mix.

Since I know that the blood meal will attract deer, rodents and other animals I nailed down a protective mesh to keep larger animals away from the plants.







Now that everything is prepped I just need to wait for the seeds to germinate to plant them outside. I wish I had more seeds but until I get a better job these five will have to do. Plus, I started a 28 plant guerrilla grow before I even signed up to RIU that I also need to keep an eye on.

See you in a couple days...

Questions or comments welcome.
