Why doens't everyone have an indoor raised bed?

[PadawanWarrior]

I finally ran out of my mother earth 40 lb bag of kelp, need to grab some more. Thinking about doing a soil test after this run. You cats recommend or should I just throw the bas kitchen sink at it? Lol

My soil's almost 4 years old now. I'm gonna get it tested sometime so I'm not just guessing. I'm curious what the levels are. Guessing high Ca, but have no idea.

I almost said that. But it does have lots of Ca. I've got 25# buckets of it and kelp meal though.

I'm just fuckin around. They have a lot of really good shit. Craft blend is my favorite though, because I use ro water, so I don't get much of a calcium buildup. Not that I've noticed at least. I like the variety of ingredients it has also. .

I've not done one yet, getting mine ready for round 3, but I'm gonna let it sit for a while growing cover crop. I let that shit get thick last run.

Same, have a few pots outside just sitting there, cover crop is a great idea.

It's definitely beneficial. I use it to help guage my soils nutrition and health. I figure it should be a good indicator.

I grab all my ideas and knowledge from you guys, thanks for the positive vibes. Cover crops add to the soils benefit, grabbing nitrogen from the air and feeding it to the soil. Some crazy shit.

Among other things like putting roots in ground, adding fungal and bacterial life, and becoming food for future plants.

Pots offer flexibility, better drainage, and easier cleaning. But if raised beds suit your setup, go for it.

Giving it a run, you still have to be on top of things, not plug and play.
