Technique: Hole Making in Bales


Growing in a bale is easy. Buy or get some old spoiled square bales. Find a place in the middle and use your post hole digger or a spade to get started.


Spread the straw or hay apart. Go as deep as you can go.


Use your superdigger or a 4" PVC with pipe fittings. Mine is reduced from 4"-3"- 2".  Plunge the pipe with fittings into the indention made by post hole digger.


Continue making the planting hole by going in a circular motion.


Fill your newly made hole with soil and plant your seeds or seedling. This technique works great for aged bales. The new solid bales might pose a problem in making a planting hole.
