Cheapest way to do it thread 🧵 1/
(TLDR)
-connect with arborist for free wood chips
-obtain “green” compost from local businesses
-height/fencing
-bokashi and sealed water bucket method of producing fertilizer
-leftover water from washing rice and lentils
-will be ready to plant next year, otherwise add soil if planting this year
6/ Bokashi method of composting allows to you use alternative types of waste that are not typical “greens” but you have to buy bokashi bran. https://www.almanac.com/bokashi-composting
Another fertilizer method is to add weeds, trimmings and other greens to water in a sealed bucket set in the sun for 6 weeks to ferment.
Don’t forget the leftover water from washing rice and lentils makes great fertilizer. You can even grind up raw lentils to a powder, mix with water and fertilize you plants that way.
