I can only say from experience that mulching is an absolute must, especially in hot regions like here in Kisumu, where it is constantly 26 to 32 degrees at midday. Even if it rains heavily in the evening, the surface is dry the next day due to the intense sunlight. Mulching prevents this and the moisture stays in the soil up to the top layer. Vegetables in particular do not have deep roots and are dependent on the moisture in the top layers. The soil organisms can only really develop under mulch and constantly moist soil. Mulching is an absolute must for organic gardening.

Ninaweza kusema tu kutokana na uzoefu kwamba kuweka matandazo ni jambo la lazima kabisa, hasa katika maeneo yenye joto kali kama hapa Kisumu, ambapo ni nyuzi joto 26 hadi 32 kila wakati adhuhuri. Hata ikiwa mvua kubwa inanyesha jioni, uso ni kavu siku inayofuata kwa sababu ya jua kali. Mulching huzuia hili na unyevu hukaa kwenye udongo hadi safu ya juu. Mboga hasa hawana mizizi ya kina na hutegemea unyevu katika tabaka za juu. Viumbe vya udongo vinaweza tu kukua chini ya matandazo na udongo wenye unyevunyevu kila mara. Mulching ni lazima kabisa kwa bustani ya kikaboni.

3.38 START A NURSERY – LILIAN HAS A GREEN THUMP PUMPKIN – SALAD –

PERMACULTURE COURSE AGRO - ECONOMY (Post 8,   21.10.23) PDC LESSON 3.38 START A NURSERY – LILIAN HAS A GREEN THUMP PUMPKIN – SALAD – Although we don't know where the soil we transport comes from, the handcart costs €2 and it is about ½ m². There is no growing soil like we have here. But LILIAN in the neighbouring nursery manages with shade and mulch that almost all of my seeds come up from Spain. It's amazing how she does it. Only the marigold seeds worry us and don't come. I do not know why that is. It is always important to find someone who knows the earth and the climate here. Some seeds don't need such humus-rich soil to start, some like the avocado seeds just need enough water and then need 2 months until they have grown roots in order to plant them in soil.

Her place is next to the old lady with her flower nursery, who gave her permission to do it there, but she does not have any paper. I have now received an official letter and a permit as well as a water connection. So, she now has the right to run her small nursery there, and we have our own water connection with a meter.   What's coming is Alium Giganteum, I brought the seeds with me from Andalusia, they all came straight away. This flower doesn't exist here.  KOZI YA PERMACULTURE AGRO-ECONOMY (Post 14, 30.11.23) SOMO 1 LA PDC - 3.44 - ANZA BUSTANI + KITALU - LILIAN UPANUA NAFASI YAKE Karibu na NIGHTINGALE MEDICAL CENTRE huko KISUMU MILIMANI KENYA Lilian sasa anachochewa na shughuli zan...
