But, ya know if you dont have access to a tractor for the initial groundbreaking, you just have to take your lumps. BTDT.




I had a crazy dope head cousin wanted to borrow one of machines to try and find the lid to his septic tank. hell naw



Right. To do it right, you need to break new ground with a turning plow. I always do that, and in the fall, after harvesting everything, I'll either plow my garden spots with a bottom plow or a chisel. That way, the ground drys faster in the spring, allowing you to plant sooner.
