Before you cringe, rest assured this Bale-out won’t cost taxpayers (or their grandchildren) trillions of dollars…
Living on a relatively steep hill, garden space comes at a high premium. After a successful attempt at pickling cucumbers this past year, I very much want to increase the veggies that we can for later use. However, our garden was pretty crammed full last year (actually overfilled to be honest).
I remembered reading a bit in Mother Earth News or Urban Farm magazine about straw bale gardening. I think we’ll probably give this a shot. Anyone have experience (good or bad) with this process?

Have you gone vertical with your cucumbers?
Yes. I’m going to grow them in bales this year. Saw a great idea for a cucumber teepee so I’m gonna give it a shot. I want to max out production so I don’t run out of pickles so quickly.
