Cover crop is coming up on this half of the patch. Gotta spray the weeds on the other side and start working on the soil. I didn't intend to use that half of the patch this year, primarily because my dad said he might need some of the space for a horse arena. Tape measure doesn't lie, I have about 15 feet clearance from the edge of my patch. However I assumed he was right and scraped some of the top soil over to the other side. Most of it is still intact though, so I'll just be adding all my compost to this side of the patch, and perhaps plant a spring cover crop there as well. I plan to till it in as the plant grows so that I have living roots in the soil for as long as possible.
