How to manage a productive 25sqm no-dig garden
In short: Discover the low-maintenance principles of a no-dig gardening system. This video demonstrates how to maintain a small, high-yield plot through strategic succession planting and minimal soil disturbance.
The video explores a 25sqm (270sqft) no-dig garden located at latitude 51N. In this temperate oceanic zone 8 climate, the system relies on a thin annual layer of compost and woodchip paths to suppress weeds and eliminate the need for plant feeding.
Rather than following a traditional four-year rotation, the method focuses on a steady succession of new plantings and inter-plantings, typically using different plant families than those previously grown.
