    Well, if you have compost, that's a very good option. You can dig it under the earth of your veggie bed. If there are worms in it, even better. You can also grow Lupines on that patch of earth. Once they have flowered and begin to wither, you cut them down and dig them under the earth. But it is september already, so I suppose it is too late for the lupines (where do you live?).


    Good luck,

    Where were you when I was asking all of my questions concerning lupines? You could have corrected my spelling for one thing. I tried planting "lupinis" and they never came up! I love them!

    I never saw any of your lupine questions!!! And don't worry about the spelling, it actually varies. In the US it's lupines, in the UK it's lupins, and if you wanna go academic you can say it in latin: lupinus (singular) or lupinae (plural). :)

    Just use kitchen scraps (no meat), yard clippings, the occasional scoop of dirt. Turn soil every now and then.  Add worms once the volume is large enough to accommodate...
