Square Foot Gardening

Square Foot Gardening

What is square foot gardening? A simple, unique and versatile system that adapts to all levels of experience, physical ability, and geographical location. Grow all you want and need in only 20% of the space of a conventional row garden. Save time, water, work and money! I am following the square foot gardening method, and I'll be using it as a reference through out the blog. Square foot gardening invented by the genius Mel Bartholomew! Learn more about it in his website , Or order his very very valuable book. It may come in downloadable PDF files too, if you search.

Here are the 10 things that make SFG different from traditional row gardening:

  1. Layout. Arrange your garden in squares, not rows. Lay it out in 4′x4′ planting areas. Companion plants can help each other grow bigger and tastier!
  2. Boxes. Build boxes to hold a new soil mix above ground. Your existing soil doesn't matter! forget about it, and just worry about the new soil called Mel's Mix.
  3. Aisles. Space boxes 3′ apart to form walking aisles. It makes it easier to walk and sit around the boxes, especially when your plants get really big and spill out of the boxes a little.
  4. Soil. Fill boxes with Mel’s special soil mix: 1/3 blended compost (please please make your own! The compost sold in Kuwait is a little shady) , 1/3 peat moss, and 1/3 coarse vermiculite (All available in True Value).
  5. Grid. Make a permanent square foot grid for the top of each box. A MUST!
  6. Care. NEVER WALK ON YOUR GROWING SOIL. This is how the soil stays so fluffy and airy for the roots stay happy. Tend your garden from the aisles.
  7. Select. Plant a different flower, vegetable, or herb crop in each square foot, using 1, 4, 9, or 16 plants per square foot. You might, for example, plant a single tomato in a square, but you’d plant 16 carrots in another. Using this system, you can cram a lot of garden into a small space and still get excellent yields.
  8. Plant. Conserve seeds. Plant only a pinch (2 or 3 seeds) per hole. Place transplants in a slight saucer-shaped depression. This means you wont waste seeds! The traditional way is to plant lots of seeds then cut off the majority and leave the strongest.
  9. Water. Water by hand from a bucket of sun-warmed water.
  10. Harvest. When you finish harvesting a square foot, add only compost and replant it with a new and different crop.
Here's how Im starting my square foot garden : I decided how big of an area I want to use, I am placing my SFG on the roof of my house, which I made sure received at least 8 hours of full sun. I am going big and starting with lots of boxes. So after thorough planning I decided I want two 4x4 square foot boxes (which is the standard) two smaller boxes for root vegetables like carrots and potatoes, and one long box for herbs. You can download the guide I created for the carpenters here . Its not the most accurate illustration of what the boxes look like in the end, but the numbers are right. You can change the measurements how ever you like, most importantly, you have to make sure each square is 1ft squared in size= 30 cm. Also Most vegetables require 6 inches of soil, I've decided to use around 20cm. If the boxes are placed over a garden/soil, they don't need bottoms. In my case, I have to apply bottoms since they're going to be in the roof. The bottoms are waterproof 2cm thick plywood. The plywood has to have around 0.6 cm holes drilled in each square, plus in the corners. My boxes have weird squares in the plywood because the carpenter mistook 0.6cm for huge 6cm holes, I had them fix them without problems. Potato/Carrot beds: One of the 4x4' beds with the herb bed: You can of course build your own boxes, and a very detailed guide is in the book. Im sure its much more fun.I don't have the skill or time, so I had the boxes done for 50KD total, 30 for the wood and 20 for the building. The work was done by Ibrahim in Classic Design Carpentry : Don't forget, you can collect sawdust for free and use it as a carbon source in your compost! Maybe I'll paint the outsides of the boxes with the kids before the season starts, what do you think?

Crafting a crafted Birkin-style purse is a laborious process that required unparalleled expertise and accuracy. Crafted by artisans with decades of expertise, every Birkin is a testament to the commitment and craftsmanship that characterize opulence fashion. These artisans meticulously select the finest leathers, ensuring every hide fulfills the high standards for a Birkin-style. The procedure involves cutting, stitching, and assembling the bag by manually, with each thread carefully thought out. The care to detail in a handmade Birkin-style is unmatched. Artisans devote many days or sometimes weeks to finish a one bag, showcasing their dedication to excellence. Starting from the subtle horseback sewing to the flawless edges, every element of the Birkin reflects the artisan’s skill and commitment to excellence. This degree of artistry not only ensures a stunning completed product but also assures longevity, rendering each Birkin-style purse a valuable acquisition for luxury shoppers. In a environment in which robots frequently replace people touch, crafted Birkin-style bags remain as a homage to traditional artistry. The handcrafted process imbues each bag with a distinct character and soul, setting them apart from conveyor-belt opulence goods. For fashion enthusiasts who prize genuineness and artistry, owning a handmade Birkin is similar to possessing a work of art.
The Attraction of Owning a Handmade Birkin-style
Crafted Birkin-style bags are more than simply accessories; they are works of creativity that entrance accumulators and style enthusiasts.
Eco-Friendliness and Crafted Opulence
Within an era when sustainability is of utmost importance, crafted Birkin bags align flawlessly with the principles of environmentally-conscious shoppers. Unlike commercial fashion items, handmade Birkin-style bags are crafted with a focus on quality over quantity, lessening refuse and minimizing environmental effect. Supporting handmade luxury implies backing eco-friendly practices that favor ethical manufacturing and accountable procurement. To sustainable style advocates, buying in a crafted Birkin-style is a mindful decision. Such purses are often created using environmentally-safe substances and methods, guaranteeing a reduced ecological impact. The emphasis on sturdiness and longevity further supports sustainability, since a expertly-crafted Birkin can last a lifespan, reducing the need for frequent substitutes. The eco-friendly aspect of handmade Birkins echoes deeply with luxury shoppers who prioritize morally-minded consumption. By selecting crafted luxury goods, style enthusiasts contribute to the preservation of conventional artistry while supporting artisans who maintain sustainable practices. In this way, crafted Birkin-style bags embody a harmonious mix of luxury and accountability.
