Not sure why the image is displaying sideways in preview? This is my first post so still figuring it all out. *I’ve tried adding it to the body of this post to see if that works better. Just testing things. Please ignore **okay so for anyone else encountering that issue, it reads photos taken as vertical photos as horizontal unless that photo is resaved as a whole new image.

I’ve been trying to maximise what I grow in my garden so I’ve inoculated ny berry patch beds with winecap mushrooms. They seem to like similar acidity levels and do well together so I put a mix of straw and wood chip mulch down with some spawn the start of last spring. My berries did great, the soil has never looked better, and I got a tasty bonus crop.

I’ve got a big pile of logs to inoculate with a couple other varties this winter and more garden beds to build in the veggie patch. I love looking at what everyone else is growing in their gardens so I’m looking forward to seeing this wee community grow 🌱

  • I do in some areas. None of my soil is left naked and depending on what I’m growing it gets leaf mulch, woodchips, straw, or pineneedles. I don’t want to lose any moisture and I want to create an environment that attracts microorganisms. The woodchips in the bed are mixed in with natural leaf litter and some straw.
