I put out a 2500 sqft garden last year consisting of 20 deep raised beds and it was everything to keep caught up on it.. I also have it drip tape irrigated.. I stated with solid blue clay added 16 truckloads of horse manure and 10 loads of leaf compost and I still need to amend it more this year the compost and manure has decomposed and its pretty clay filled still.. I don't use a tiller because it actually compacts the the clay at the bottom of the bed basically making a pond basin under each bed.. Future plans are to rent a post hole driller and drill 10-15 holes as deep as possible in each bed and fill with compost for better drainage.. 4' of solid clay SUCKS..


I believe in catch and release. I catch then release to the grease..
