I too wear rubber gloves. Demi Moore made them fashionable again in that
movie with R Redford and W Harleson. And I can get them in aqua or yellow,
fashion colors. LOL.
If I had more room I would have planted to insure my little rotiller could
get between the rows but I can use Scotts little 6 inch hand tiller pretty
well. And then i do use preen.
My garden is at an intersectoion well traveled and the people will yellout
"lookin good" etc. ( at first I thought they meant me, but I guess its the
flowers) and that keeps me encouraged! So a little chem , alittle elbow
grease and the tiller and the job gets done!
