According to Mittlider, narrow beds are watered every day. With organic matter, it's a completely different matter. If both the beds and the aisles are covered with mulch, two waterings per week are enough. Drip irrigation is especially convenient here: one tape is enough for a narrow bed, a maximum of two for a bed 70-80 cm. Trenches - narrow beds for hot climates If your area is never flooded, it is best to sink a narrow compost bin into the ground. Right in the sod I dig a trench two bayonets wide and bayonet deep.

Interested in this question: is it possible to establish cesspool or a septic tank behind the fence, outside the site?

Discussion

In fact, there is a whole set of rules for the installation of sewer structures. But it was easier for us with this - the representatives of the officials installed the Topas 6 septic tank for us, so they did everything as it should be on the site. There are no complaints, everyone is happy. And by the way, we also ordered the service right away. We plan to preserve the septic tank for the winter, since there is such an opportunity. The septic tank itself is resistant to voltage drops, it works constantly. You will seek advice from people who are engaged in and understand this directly and you will be happy.

You can build a septic tank anywhere, but you need to keep in mind that building a septic tank outside the site is an illegal structure and the following risks await you:

Firstly, the construction outside the territory of the site will certainly be noticed by someone and put on your view.

Secondly, there are no guarantees that someday in the future you will not be issued an order to eliminate the illegal construction at your expense,

Thirdly, when registering a building, you will have to register (show on the drawings and present the SES) a septic tank. A septic tank located outside the site will deprive you of the opportunity to officially register the building.

This is not the first time I have read such arguments. Some authors go even further and suggest not to graze tomatoes, not to weed out weeds, and not even to sow, but simply leave some of the plants so that their seeds ripen and sow.
I read it and every time I am surprised. It seems that people consider a fair part of the humanity not only idiots, but also masochists. After all, experiments on such "natural farming" over the millennia of farming were carried out many times - involuntarily, of course (it was not possible to plow, there was no one to harvest, and so on). And if it led to positive, not negative results- wouldn't our ancestors have noticed this?
Such "natural agriculture", without plowing, but only with loosening directly for sowing, people were engaged in at the dawn of civilization, when only arose Agriculture basically. Only, obviously, plowing turned out to be more productive ... otherwise why would they start doing it? From masochism, or what?

Why is the water cycle important in nature?

All water on Earth is in constant motion - a cycle. It evaporates from the surface of the ocean and land, replenishing atmospheric moisture.

About half of the river's water is again carried to the seas and oceans, replenishing that part of it that was spent on evaporation. The deposited precipitation enriches the soil with moisture, which is so necessary for fertility. To the water cycle we are so ...

We started planting with greens, ground cucumbers and carrots, beets in small beds. Enough about two acres. Plus bushes (5) and two cherries and apple trees, a pear.
The first time we plowed with a tractor with a solid wood, I didn’t like it, but only he took the virgin soil. Towards winter, hay manure was transported around the site, after four years and who knows the lope of manure, the earth is old, tender and loose, even I can dig with a shovel.
If you still have the strength to plant strawberries, Victoria or whatever you like, not everyone will be in the first year.

for a start - fill with a hurricane from weeds (2 weeks before digging). mark the planting sites fruit bushes and trees - usually on high parts of the site. mark the paths and the landing site of the house. or UFO. do not forget the parking lot. and only then - to dig up roughly - with the overturning of the turf plates. in the spring - that's right, potatoes and oats to saturate the soil with everything useful. or rye. with a broad gesture of the sower from O.

Well, in the spring and autumn I may come again .. Or should I not bother? Or maybe something else can be planted in advance? (large plot - plant as much as you like)

Discussion

Necessarily!!! plant fruit trees(apple trees 4-6 pcs, plums 3-4 pcs) and currants 3-5 pcs. Trees can be planted 2-3 years old (these are just thin twigs and not expensive), just in 3-4 years they will become larger, then it will be possible to form, or maybe not at all. And during this time the currants will also grow and bear fruit. And if during the summer you come 3-4 times and in the spring and autumn for the first time - that's enough. Plant in early spring, there will definitely be rains in the spring. They will take root over the summer. M. b. something will die, but certainly not all. Good luck!

lawn grass or bent grass - and cut 3-4 times per season.
trees and shrubs can be planted, but may die in the heat.

We dug a 4x4 pond in och. low location. We always have water in this corner and our neighbors. We dug grooves along the site so that all the rainwater from the site would drain into the pond. After 2 years, this pond became 6x6 ... and I'm afraid that this is not the limit. Here we are thinking how to strengthen the banks so that they do not crawl further. And yet - when we dug it, water immediately began to appear - there was a trickle - as if underground source beats. Maybe someone knows what is better to do in our case ... We have fish and watermelons in our pond)

Discussion

Ours is very similar. Also a pond in a low place, and even a stream flows nearby. And also in one place it collapsed heavily for two years. Strengthened with metal reinforcement and large stones. First, they cut off the ground in layers, like steps, then these steps were strengthened. And all over the edge there are large plants with rhizomes that can hold the earth.

Not only is there groundwater close, you also dug grooves to it, of course it will expand. You can lay the banks with reinforcing mesh, you can drive them in with old pipes, you can drive iron sheets, you can overlay them with turf and stones, you can even knock out logs, you can cement it, you can just lay stones.
You can lay this shore with black film and overthrow the stones

Throughout the section, there are groove tracks left over from the beds. For two seasons we are already thinking what is better to do with them ... Just dig up and level? I am afraid that the local workers will not make it possible to sow the lawn. Land to bring and level? I do not like what kind of land they bring to the people in the district. Either there is some kind of clay from nowhere, or peat, which is smeared on the fingers like fuel oil, under the guise of black soil ... Tell me, is it really possible to find good land in the Moscow region? Just don't ask me ...

I ask for help from "experienced". There is an untreated low plot, about three acres there is water even in summer. Found a construction site 15 km from the site (Stupino district, Moscow region). One of these days we will go to negotiate with the builders so that the soil from the pit will be transported to us. Actually the question: How much can it cost - that is, within what "fork" to bargain with builders? And with whom to negotiate - with the foreman or with the carriers? Thanks in advance to everyone who responds.

Large seeds (zucchini, beans, peas, pumpkin) are sown in the dug holes in 2-3 grains, then the weak plants are removed, leaving only one. Most of these crops are thermophilic, they are planted at great depths: 3-4 cm on heavy soils or 5-6 cm on light soils. After sowing, it is better to compact the soil a little, pressing down slightly with a shovel from above, so that the seeds are better pressed to the ground. But, if, before the emergence of seedlings, the bed will be heavily flooded with rains, tamping can only harm: it will be difficult for plants to break through the hard earthen crust.

Even in the smallest garden, you need to try to allocate some space for the baby's "own" garden and teach him to take care of the future harvest.

I also have clay. In addition to what has already been listed, I always plant a decent area of ​​peas in the garden, then I dig this area along with the husks and tops in the fall.
We transport all heaps of moles to the beds and flower beds.
When cleaning the ponds, we water everything that is possible with this water (plants love swamp water) Soprapel is also there.
When developing a new site, I preliminarily cover it with cardboard, film, plywood or old slate (which is at hand) so that the vegetation decays, and then the roots of the weeds are easily removed, but the fertile layer remains.
Well, we collect all the green mass of both weeds and waste from vegetables in heaps, cover them with foil or plant pumpkins on these heaps. And after 2-3 years, these heaps also turn into earth.

Auroric told you correctly - you need to add EVERYTHING. Remember, in the 5th grade, experiments were done on what the soil consists of? From clay, sand and borders. So add sand and organic matter (peat, humus, sapropel, manure).
Very cheap but long way from personal experience... Sow oats and dig up. You can dig up green, you can wait for ripening, harvest (the grains easily break off if you hold the ear through your fingers) and dig up the straw. In the second case, it will turn out very cheaply, because the seed is needed only for the first time. You can sow 2-3 times a year (of course, only the first sowing will have time to ripen). In 5 years you will not recognize your clay.

The article deals with how to choose and buy the right soil for a summer cottage.

When opens summer season It seems that you can buy a land car for a plot literally at every corner.

Roadside sellers claim that their product is prime black soil or fertile land... Unfortunately, only the structure of the soil can be determined by eye, but the exact chemical composition, including the level of fertility and the presence harmful substances, will only let you know laboratory analysis... If sellers present any photocopies of documents on the ground, for example, a laboratory test report, then the authenticity of these papers is often in doubt.

It may be that bought from random people soil is a waste substrate from greenhouses or a layer cut off when widening roads or from abandoned collective farm fields. And this is fraught with the fact that the soil will be stuffed with weed seeds, contaminated with pesticides or infected with pests and pathogens. Most often, peat, poor in composition, is given out for "fat" black soil sold by hand.

On the website of our partner http://top100pro.ru ( construction equipment rental exchange ) you will be able to place an application for the purchase or delivery of any soil and choose the most offer of the system participants.

WE BUY SOIL CORRECTLY

In order not to be mistaken with the choice of soil, it is better to purchase it in specialized firms, since there are many of them now. These include companies supplying various bulk materials, including for the construction of buildings and landscaping. Production and sales potting mixes large nurseries and landscape firms are involved.

Information about the range, prices, composition of soils and mixtures can be found on the companies' websites on the Internet. But some questions, for example, whether there are discounts for the purchase of a large volume of soil, whether delivery is included in the price or the prices are indicated for self-pickup, will have to be clarified by phone.

Before placing an order, you need to decide on the composition of the soil, based on the conditions of the allotment, and calculate the volume. Let's say you plan to raise the level of the plot by 4-5 cm, the soil on it is a medium-heavy loam that needs improvement, and the area of ​​land allocated for planting is 12 acres (1200 sq. M). In this case, you will need at least 60 cubic meters. m of soil, for example, a mixture of low-lying peat, coarse sand and floodplain land in a ratio of 3: 4: 2. Loose soil, especially if it contains a lot of peat, settles noticeably over time, so it is better to buy it with a margin.

Experts recommend not to overuse peat. Its amount in the soil mixture, which is distributed over the site, should not exceed 30%. For example, the soil mixture, more than half consisting of peat, is thoroughly mixed with the land of the allotment. Individual crops are mulched with a thin peat layer, followed by incorporation of mulch into the soil.

Pure chernozem is not suitable for use in areas near Moscow. It is introduced little by little when digging sandy soils, or it is added to the composition of soil mixtures along with sand, light loam.

EXACT CALCULATION

Price different types soil, ready-made soil mixtures, organic substrates at different manufacturers can vary significantly. Fertile or vegetative soil (the top layer from the fields, a mixture of low-lying peat with sand or floodplain land) will cost 590-1790 rubles per cubic meter. m. Poor in composition loam, suitable for raising the level of the site, will be brought for 360 rubles per cubic meter. m, and floodplain land, with the help of which it is possible to increase soil fertility, will cost 1040-1270 rubles per cubic meter. m.

Tambov, Tula, Ryazan, Oryol, Lipetsk chernozems cost from 900 to 1350 rubles per cubic meter. m and all kinds of peat (horse, lowland, transitional, weathered) is sold at 450-900 rubles per cubic meter. m.
Horse manure can be bought for 720-1300 rubles per cubic meter. m.

For those who find it difficult to make the required soil composition on their own, you can use the service "preparation of soil mixture according to the customer's recipe."

FROM THEORY TO PRACTICE

When visually assessing the quality of the soil, you need to make sure that all the components of the mixture are well mixed, there are no large foreign inclusions (stones, roots, fragments of boards, pieces of glass, lumps of clay). The substrate should be loose, finely lumpy in structure. In large companies, special equipment is used for mixing and sieving soil mixtures, since manual mixing (with shovels) is ineffective.

The brought soil is scattered over the previously dug and leveled surface and, if necessary, thoroughly mixed with the ground on the site. All the soil is unlikely to be immediately used, therefore, a dry, flood-proof place in a free corner of the land plot should be allocated for storage. If trees that need to be preserved grow nearby, the soil is poured outside the projections of the crowns of these trees.

For short-term storage (1-1.5 months) piles or heaps are made at a distance of 2-3 m from the trunks. And to protect the soil from weed seeds and erosion by rainstorms, it is covered with polyethylene.

I would not recommend buying a pig in a poke.

They offer black soil, but they will bring simple land... Better to touch the ground with your own hands and see. The best thing is to bring in humus. If the land is still poorly developed, then humus is the most best fertilizer... If the areas are large, then mixed with peat or black soil. If you import black soil, then pay attention to the quality. High-quality black soil is rich in humus, dark in color. There are different types of peat: light (horse) it is more light color and heavy (grassroots) of a darker color. Black peat has a higher humus content.
If you raise a site, it is better to first moor peat, since its decay period is still 15% and it has an increased desiccant, which will make your site drier. And in the future, use both black soil and grassland peat with the addition of humus. Beautiful land on old abandoned farms (if there are any in the area).

Dear Mamma mia, in your question you say that: There is no point in plowing the old land, because it is necessary to raise the site. "It is necessary to plow. I just watched how our communal services were ennobling the courtyard. They brought in black soil - they scattered it all day, worked with a rake - the result is abundant the night rain and all the black earth just washed away onto the asphalt.

What kind of land to bring to the plot for the garden?

We have peat bogs and we also had to raise the level of the ground. We ordered sandy loam. The plot was leveled, and fertile land was brought only under the beds. We make high beds. We knock off the formwork from the boards or make them from slate. We fill the finished beds with fertile soil. What they will bring you under the name of black earth is not known. All the same you have to adjust. We mix the imported soil with ash from the stove and barbecue, egg husks, sand, since our "black soil" is more like peat. We put humus at the bottom of the garden bed, fill it with sand and put a fertile mixture, spill everything with phytosporin. True, we do it in the fall.
We plant the potatoes in loam, put a little humus, ash and peat in each hole. We plant at the end of May, when the earth is more or less dry.

Buy land specifically for the beds, and level the plot with sand or loam. It's cheaper and better this way.

★★★★★★★★★★

Whatever land you bring in to level the plot, for the beds for vegetables and berries you will still need another land.

Which? Each culture has its own. Each type of vegetable / fruit / berry has its own soil preference. For some vegetable crops, so-called. warm beds, for example, cucumbers, some types of cabbage, so there can be any land there, and you will have to make warm beds with your own hands quite carefully. And if you want to plant a garden and get a harvest, then you will have to take care of the quality of the land for the beds, not once and for all plants at once, but for each species separately. Meanwhile, if you have peat on your site, then buy loam, if loam, then buy peat. And be sure to buy the same amount of sand, which always goes 1: 1 in the beds, and for certain types of plants, sand is required even more. Sand will always come in handy.

The creation of fertile land on a site often takes more than one year.
