A bit off topic here, but the easiest and best garden I ever planted was
done by simply rolling out some old used jute backed carpet [stolen from
curb side pickup and carpet store dumpsters] on top of the grass in the
yard, cutting some holes in it and transplanting containerized plants in it.
No weeds, no tilling, no water run off, [water runs right throught the
carpet carrying any fertilizer laid on top with it], bugs and snails don't
like the carpet, no rust from soil borne viruses and fruits don't lie on
the ground.
The grass dies from lack of light and fertilizes the garden. The decaying
grass roots soften the soil.
One drawback.
After about 4 years the carpet disintigrates and can be a bit hard to
roll up and dispose of. [It would have been ..had been...disposed of anyway]

Excellent description of a very simple c/s generator. I applaud you.
Iknow about cut flowers, however, I intend to plant some veggies this
years in packaged growth boxes. My soil in in poor shape and I'm too old
and decrepit to dig a garden anyway. I intend to add about 3 or 4 ounces
c/s to the water supply to each box. Will this have any effect on the
plants? Thank you UFOS
