It was 60 degrees and dry yesterday. I tilled about 800sq feet of my 2000sq ft patch. I hope i can get the soil numbers just right this year. In the fall I added 8yds of very fresh dairy manure, 4yards of composted dairy manure, and 4 yards of composted chicken manure. Today, prior to tilling, I added 40 pounds of feather meal, 20 pounds of kelp meal, and 40 pounds of alfalfa meal. That should push the nitrogen levels up and give lots of growth hormones.
