  • No weeding, raised beds make access easier, tomato plants love this method of gardening. Great for potatoes also, no digging!  Anything that grows in the soil will do well in the bales also. 9
  • Early in the season, make the straw bales into a greenhouse, the "conditioning" of the bale below emits lots of heat during the process which warms the root zone and protects plants on the surface from frost.  They love this up in the Arctic Circle in AK and Canada.  See more at www.strawbalegardens.com 1
  • Planting annuals in the sides also makes the garden look attractive as well as productive. 6
  • Direct seeding into a seedbed of sterile Planting Mix on the surface of the bales.  These seedlings grow rapidly due to the extra warmth from the decomposing bale below.  Once seeded, cover with the plastic sheeting to protect from critters, frost, hard rain etc.  See more information at www.strawbalegardens.com

Straw Bale Gardening, great in all climates from the Arctic to the Caribbean islands!

Straw Bale Gardening is essentially container gardening, without the cost of a container or the planting mix to fill it. Just buy a bale of straw, go through the "conditioning" process ...»
and plant, then water, then harvest, it is about that simple. Get the full details at www.strawbalegardens.com
