I found a product to seal my terra cotta pots! I have been putting off this project because I could not find a product to seal my porous pots.

Here’s a summary of what I did to prepare the soil for the raised beds in my new greenhouse, along with a look at the current layout. It’s really starting to come together. Needless to say, I’m very proud of the results.

Part 3 of the raised bed expansion. This last bed in built into a deeper sloping hill. Next year I will need to add another layer (2 x 6 board) on top of the two layers I built this year. I want and think I need to in order to keep the grass out of the bed. My goal for 2011 is 500 lbs of vegetables. In 2011 I grew 175 lbs from 73 square feet of garden. This year the garden will be 188 square feet.

See how my raised vegetable bed was transformed into a permaculture type of raised bed so that future digging would not be required thus safeguarding the soil structure for better vegetable growing…
