Building a Hotbed for Early Gardening
Dig a slightly larger pit in a sunny sheltered site, fill with stable horse manure, then place a frame on the manure. Use wide boards or double glass sashes to protect frost. Raise the north edge four inches, support with bricks, fill with loamy soil five to six inches deep, and let the manure cool before planting.
