We had the main patch tilled yesterday. We’ve had some great weather and things dried out enough to work the soil. Rain is in the extended forecast, and with our silty soil the moisture stays in for quite awhile and I was worried that it would be weeks before we could work the soil. We need to test and amend one more time to make sure PH is correct and base saturations where we want them. There is an early Agricultural Fair in Victoria, BC that hopefully we will take a pumpkin to this year, so we are starting an early plant with soil heat cables and night-time heat.
