.....Better prepared in just about every aspect of growing. Added lots of composted dairy cow manure and composted leaves from last fall. I did so well with amending the soil, I didn't have to add anything except 3.5 pounds of Nitrogen in this patch.........

Last years.....what I'll refer to as a "hotcap"....No way I would do that again. Talk about a grower who learned from that experiance.....Like I said last fall...."Next year will be better"......And here it is. Spent all day putting this hoophouse together. It's 12ft x 16ft and 7ft high at the top. This should help dry out and warm up the soil by next month....
