I've been meaning to ask this. Are those commercial pressed paper containers or are you reusing the cardboard egg containers. If they are egg containers do you plant the container and allow it to compost?

Just wondering?

They are paper egg containers. We pull them apart and plant in the ground. The paper is supposed to disintegrate.
We did buy some pots made of peat for planting directly into the ground.

Glen I posted this same video not so long ago here's the quote from the intro to the video/I put in the Bold Priint;

Published on Jan 31, 2016

Diepploegen door Bijker Bulldozerverhuur uit Rouveen. Hier wordt bijna twee meter diep geploegd om diepliggende zandlagen naar boven te halen om de grond beter bewerkbaar te maken.

Contractor Bijker Bulldozerverhuur of Rouveen, The Netherlands seen busy with deep ploughing using a Caterpillar D8H. D8E and D6R with a combined horsepower of 650HP! The plough is self-build and goes to two meters deep. The top layer soil is ploughed under and the lighter sand and peat soil is brought to the surface to make the land more suitable for other crops and easier to work on.

Thanks for watching!

This is from the description of the video.

Post #5 in the following thread is interesting.

Very Deep Plowing...Why?

I see I was a little slow.

I couldn't remember where/why I had watched that video before....

Better late than never!

That is a nice setup there Glen! Your garden area looks to be about the same size as my entire back yard

Gotta love it,


Going going going










Almost Gone !!!






And yes that is actually the law up here, you have certain times of year for unrestricted burning, and you have to have a Water Hose and a 5 gallon bucket of Water ready to go.. Other then that it is pretty darn lenient...


Will wait a couple of days and then run the plow once again..

Of course I saw a couple of small trees and a stump or two that I can pull and add another row hehehehe
