Hot Spell Tomato,
Utah tall Celery,. Red Creole Onions and
Tokyo White Bunching Onions
in
new
stump plot. First a thin layer of soil and fine coconut
husk dust was spread around the
(marked) planting areas -and then the same
mixture, with seeds added, was sprinkled on top. This was
intended to provide a soft under-layer for developing roots -as
well as a way thinning out the seeds, so they have more space to
grow, Afterwards, the garden was given a good watering.
