Using the above guide, I watered the transplants daily with my metal watering can. This allowed me to concentrate the water to the area where the transplant was put in. I also watered the bale area around the
plants, to keep the whole straw bale moist. I set up the drip system in my garden a couple weeks after the transplants were planted, and had a
dripper placed at each transplant's base.
My first straw
bale was essentially finished. From this point it was basically just watering it like I would the other veggies in the garden.
In the next part of this growing experiment, I will let you know how the transplants are doing, and perhaps try the other side of Straw Bale Gardening, starting
seeds in the bale.
