question about soil preparation for winter months
    #18824687 - 09/10/13 06:38 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

I'm thinking ahead to the end of the fall when I'm going to have to prepare my garden for the winter. This is my first year having a garden so I'm not sure what to do.

I have a couple of beds, and a whole lot of buckets outside in my garden. I found that even though the buckets are kinda ugly, they are cheep as hell compared to large pots ($2.50 at home depot) and I'm mainly concerned with harvests rather than looks. I grow mostly herbs: peppermint, lemon balm, rosemary, lavender, hyssop, valarian...and some morning glories for good measure :smile: .
All my soils are basically peat moss with perlite, compost and composted manure.

I checked a few ph samples and they are all around 6.5-7 right now.

I'm thinking I'm not going to add any lime and just add some composted horse manure and regular compost that I get from my local home depot.

I was thinking at the end of fall I would pull back all the mulch on everything and lay down a mixed layer of composted manure and compost.

My question is should I also mix that compost with perlite for drainage before laying down on top?

After I lay the compost layer down I would then place a thick layer of mulch over top to protect from the cold.
