Garden Plans > 2016: 2nd Soil Test

About this Garden Plan

Western end tends to be more moist and cool. Northern edge is the poorest section. The second from the left (west) in the top (north) half, and the third from the right (east) in the bottom (south) half did not germinate well in 2016; that is why they are shown empty or mostly so. We rest one-seventh of the garden each year from produce, sowing it thickly in a cover crop, usually clover.
