I hope you do better.<br /><br />Breaking the soil to plant is so much harder than sticking the seeds in. Wish I could help you!<br /><br />That hoe looks like fun. Resembles a comb, doesn't it?Bryan Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05937099144329508708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583611163696354282.post-11863131601073105862010-06-20T08:37:47.586-04:002010-06-20T08:37:47.586-04:00Oops, messed up the link about the hoes:

Got ambitious with the size of this year's garden and am still trying to break the grass and till it. And my health has not been cooperating :)<br /><br />For weeding, the farmers CSA we also work at seem to use these very efficiently:<br /><br />especially if you weed early and often before they get big. Also, mulch!<br /><br />Mowing is good, it's "good farm culture" to quote David Tresemer in "The Scythe Book", not because it looks neat and tidy (though that's good for the psyche and aesthetics of where you live) but because it keeps weed seeds out of your crops.Reed Hedgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17697833888287310411noreply@blogger.com
