So I have decided to take advantage of this warm weather Philadelphia has had in the past few days. I was excited to spend half the day clearing and preparing my beds for the growing season. I tested my soil with a store bought kit and tested the pH, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium. Turns out I need to add lots of Nitrogen(N) and Phosphorus(P), and it really couldn't hurt to add a little Potassium(K). So I will be adding leaf mulch for N, and food waste compost for P and K. I may add a little bit of bone meal to increase the P if food waste compost doesn't do the trick. I may even try to make my own!
