10.11.20 Making the Mushroom Bed

You may be wondering what I did with all of that mushroom compost. Well, here is a photo of my work. I removed the water lines and all of the plants that I thought could be salvaged. Then, I filled the bed with about 6 inches of city compost, and added a top layer of mushroom compost. Finally, I returned everything to its place. The plants look a little spent from the move, but the soil has improved by leaps and bounds, and therefore, so will the plants eventually. Looks like I’ll be taking another trip to the mushroom farm soon because there is a whole other bed to make and an entire yard to cover.
