I thought this was helpful and thought I'd share it. The following are my
handwritten notes from Burpee's "Complete Vegetable and Herb Gardner."
FIRST SPRING
Add 2 - 3" of comosted manure, compost, leaf mold or other organic matter.
Till in and plant.
EARLY SUMMER
Add organic mulch after plants are up.
FALL
Turn in mulch (as soon as any portion is free) and plant cover crop.
NEXT SPRING
Add another 2 - 3" of oranic matter and turn in along with cover crop
(after cutting it if it's tall)
(continue as above)

Zone 7b
Perpetually in search of *enough* compost or compost materials.
