RE: THE POWER OF SEEDS IS INCREDIBLE. YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT THEY SPROUTED IN!!
Nice mushrooms in the straw bales! LOL
Cut worms, I hate those little buggers!
Ever since I've known about straw bale gardening, I've always thought that the old straw would make really good filler for raised beds. The straw breaks down into some excellent growing media as it further composts in the raised beds. I think your potatoes will do really well in the old straw.
I used it for my taters last year and was blown away by how well they did. I just planted the outside edge of that back garden and ended up with 50-60 lbs of spuds. I'm thinking this year will double that as long as the weather doesn't kill me.
That would be a really good harvest of potatoes!
