A couple of months ago I wrote about my manure pile and the plants I planted there. Of course, it's not autumn yet and not all the harvest has been harvested, but it's already possible to share intermediate results.
As I expected, the zucchini on the manure pile feel great. I just can't get enough of the number of grown and still growing zucchini. There are dozens of them. And they grow without any care. I do not weed and practically do not water.
Only in the heat, I watered the bushes growing on top of the pile several times. Their leaves have wilted in the heat, but the zucchini themselves continue to grow.
In addition to zucchini, pumpkins feel great on the pile
But the cucumbers don't like this pile. I planted them too high, and they lack moisture. But tomatoes, on the contrary, have a lot of moisture, they grow below cucumbers, from opposite side of manure pile and because of the increased humidity they began to hurt. However, tomatoes on the streets always grow poorly with us. Because of the night fogs, they are always infected with phytospore.
In addition to the listed vegetables, sunflowers and oats suddenly grew on the pile. I didn't plant them there. Obviously, these are the remains of animal feed, whose manure I used.
In general, the result is good, but it could have been better. Next year I will slightly change the configuration of the pile. I'll make tiers on it and plant plants taking into account their needs for water and sun, and not just randomly spreading the seeds as was done this year.
