The frame can be timber, plastic or even corrugated iron. Commence the fill with a layer of
cardboard on the surface, being sure to place the frame over the cardboard , covering any
weeds or grass on the site. Place a layer of newspaper about 4cm deep over the cardboard,
then commence layering with lucerne hay, light dressings of blood and bone or similar fertilizer,
newspaper or shredded papers, oaten or wheaten straw, or similar, a light layer of compost or
garden soil, even potting mix.
Really, the layers can be of almost any material that will readily compost down. Repeat the
layers as many times as it takes to fill the frame in your garden, but be sure to add some blood
and bone or organic fertilizer between layers. The last layer needs to be either composted
materials, reasonable quality potting mix, or garden loam for planting you first seedlings. I do
recommend that once planted, you should liquid feed with a seaweed fertilizer at fortnightly
intervals.
