Broadfork<p>A little more plot progress. Some beds cleared, weeded, broadforked and sown with green manures. <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/NoDig" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoDig</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Allotment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Allotment</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/SolarPunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SolarPunk</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Compost</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Composting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Composting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Mulch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mulch</span></a></p>
Broadfork<p>I made a start clearing the front of the plot yesterday and turned one of the compost heaps. Some of the compost has been used to mulch the bed. </p><p>I’m looking forward to spending some more time on the plot today. It’s a glorious autumnal day. 9°C and low, bright sunshine. <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/NoDig" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoDig</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Allotment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Allotment</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/SolarPunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SolarPunk</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Compost</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Composting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Composting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/Mulch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mulch</span></a></p>
Dysmorphia💛🤍💜🖤<p>That got a lively response and composters of fedi are pretty unanimous: yay on coffee grounds in compost. </p><p>I also learned I could go ask a local coffee shop for their used grounds which had not occurred to me. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>compost</span></a></p>

Dysmorphia💛🤍💜🖤<p>Coffee grounds in backyard compost, yay or nay? My compost is a big pile of mostly leaves, dry grass, and yard clippings. It’s decaying a bit too slowly but I don’t want to go full hot compost. I think coffee grounds should balance all the “brown” without attracting animals but I am not sure. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>compost</span></a></p>
Richard Rollinson<p>My hot compost pile of garden waste is steaming in the early morning chill. Now almost at 160°F / 71°C. The raspberry canes surrounding the pile have had a great summer and are still ripening more fruit. 😀 <br><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>compost</span></a><br><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <br><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/Allotment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Allotment</span></a> <br><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/NewEngland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NewEngland</span></a> <br><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/zone6b" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>zone6b</span></a> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fedigroups.social/@gardening" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>gardening</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fedigroups.social/@allotments" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>allotments</span></a></span></p>

LA Plant Genetics<p>Finished harvesting <a href="https://spore.social/tags/compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>compost</span></a>, found these <a href="https://spore.social/tags/DirtRocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DirtRocks</span></a> at the bottom.
