This really works! Growing crops with a hotbed

Using hotbeds to extend your growing season! Composting is a powerful process in the garden. Not only does it provide you with beautiful organic matter, the right kind of composting can produce lots of heat!
In today's video, I'm going to create my very own hotbed, and watch til the end to see just how well it works.

I tried a hotbed this year and it far exceeded my expectations. I planted it with greens in mid February and in a months time I was harvesting. A small 4' x 4' bed has provided us with all the leafy greens we can eat for 4 months before my regular garden is ready.

Ooh exciting. I'm trying this along with you and thanks for all your advice. The deep comppost thermometer is reading 70 degrees c. Haven't tested top soil temp yet. But so far so toasty. Will try sowing some seeds this weekend.

Add more top soil or you will burn the roots 😊

If the first sowing dies off, then I will and try again! I might also let it cool down - these pigeon manure piles get very hot 😱
