My Garden Spring 2000
Here is my Garden before I started my Spring preparation.
LEFT: overwintered Broccoli, and ground cover is all that is left by spring.
RIGHT: That is the huge rototiller that I carried out of the car by myself (not advised - it was much harder to get back in the car!) first I raked up the excess hay that I had spread over my garden to lesson the water damage and overwinter the broccoli. I made two passes with the rototiller, the third pass you can see here on the lower LEFT: all done rotorilling here I should have raked up more of the hay (with gardening there is alway's something to learn.)
RIGHT: here I have started to make my mounds, I have tried many methods of planting and this will be my first full year trying the mounding method.
BELOW LEFT: Here are the mounds formed and patted down, I watered and waited a day or two before planting.
This year I learned that the mounds were not wide enough.
