Jacob and I have started patch preparation. We got a lot of weeds and old vines from last year burned off. We are spreading the manure on our planting sites with a wheelbarrow and rake. Due to the limited amount of manure, we are spreading it in a Christmas tree shape to match the plant growth. None to waste on the weeds. We are turning in under with a fork and adding extra topsoil from the drainage ditch we are digging. We can definitely see the spots that need the better drainage.
Weather forecast is for a couple of days in the 50's, warming to the 60's and maybe 70 by Friday. Still running a little cooler than normal so our planting dates may have to be pushed back a couple of days.
