I’ve just moved and my new yard is basically a blank slate. So far, I’ve made a vegetable bed because I wanted to get garlic planted. I cleared the area for the garlic and prepped it with compost and some bulbtone (which I find is great for garlic), but I decided to leave the broken up sod flipped over on the rest of the bed since we weren’t expecting rain anytime soon. It looks like the majority has died, and I plan on covering the whole thing with a heavy layer of shredded maple leaves. Hopefully, I won’t regret leaving the sod on the bed, but I figured the conditions were right to do so and the bed can use the extra organic material. How do you make a new vegetable bed?
