Here Jeff is giving the planting site a till. You can see the layer of Perlite that is added. It looks like a lot at first. Then look at the area behind the tiller where Jeff has already tilled. It is worked into the soil pretty well into a homogenous mixture that is just the way we want it (according to our soil tests and the information we have picked up from all you helpful growers out there sharing your wisdom with us). We continued to do this until the dirt was up even with the rest of the patch and then prepared to break out the bigger tiller to go to work on the patch as a whole.
