Before
This is the earliest ever that I churned up the garden. There was decent weather so I ran over to colleague’s to borrow the rototiller. I bet I do it again before I start planting.
Quite a few potatoes came rolling out during the process. I don’t think you can ever stop having potatoes once you’ve started.
I thought I threw some cover crop seeds out there but nothing is growing except grass and weeds. My garden technique is admittedly super half-assed.
After
I need to go through the seeds I already have and see what I should buy or decide on a strategy for this year. Normally what I do is go through the catalog and buy a ton of stuff.
Later, when I go to plant, I realize I still have zillions of other seeds from the year before. Then I take all those seeds and toss them out there because I figure they’re old and most won’t even germinate.
But of course, I’m wrong and there is chaos. Which is fine. Some areas of my life I needs lots of order but I like chaos in the yard.
