In 2011 and 2012, I had 3 plots, each 8' by 2 1/2 feet, named Washington, Oregon and California. In 2013 I combined them into a new plot named California, 9 feet by 15 feet. Crops planted in 2011 and 2012 were as follows:
E
N + S
2011 2012 W
| Corn Corn Corn | | S G Hungarian |
| | | p o Wax |
| Squash Squash Squash | | i u Pepper |
| | | n r |
| & & & | | a d Tomato |
| Beans Beans Beans | | c s |
| | | h Tomato |
In 2013 I covered the plot with manure and straw from the chicken coop and tilled it up. On May 10, I planted the South 7 feet in Spinach, Burpee Bloomsdale Long Standing. On the West half of that, I put about 10# of commercial compost directly in the spinach furrows, whereas on the east half I sprinkled about 10# on top after I planted.
As I have more activities in the California plot, I will add them to this Post.
