So you just plant the pumpkins right on the chip piles? Wow! Do you add dirt or anything? Thanks.Nynke Muller wrote:Good morning William,
For years I have planted pumpkins on my aged compost heap, with great succes, until the slugs found them and kept on eating them to the ground. This year I am trying legumes on it as well. I still have to see how it goes.
Maybe your wet woodchips are a slug paradise as well? In that case, you better plant something slug resistant, but I have no idea what that would be.
Good luck!
