Building Slug-Proof Planting Barrels

Step 6Add amendments.

Add amendments.
Add your amendments. This is where I add compost or veggie/bulb/plant food in a thin layer and mix in with gloved hands.

Add more soil and compost until you have about 6 inches to the rim of the container. Here I mix in (by hand or small hand tool) a few cups of worm castings. Because I have my own worm bins this is pretty easy and inexpensive to do. If you are buying the worm castings, you can cut the amount back - or start a worm bin!
