Yup, that's me (Northern Monterey County).  I should have figured out
the water requirement (after all, the worms have to be able to
wiggle).  My procedure preparing the two beds I have now was to dig
everything out, mix new soil, and fill the hole back up.  Pretty hard
work, and only possible when the ground has a fair amount of water in
it.  So, I'm open to any "cheats."

I'll try the manure thing someplace and see how it goes.  Thanks.
