Garden Bed Preparation for 2010

http://www.durgan.org/URL/?KRTDN 3 September 2009 Garden Bed preparation for Spring 2010.

All weeds were removed, the ground was rototilled deeply, raked relatively even, red annual clover was planted as a cover crop. The clover seed was lightly packed into the soil. I find germination is much improved. The clover is usually Winter killed. but even if some remains rototilling in the Spring kills it. Clover fixes nitrogen, and feeds the earth worms.
