We have a troy tiller. We try not to till when it is bone dry as we
think any moisture in the soil will dry out even further after it has
been tilled up and the sun and wind can work their charm. We were having
an extremely dry spring until about a week ago. We are most thankful for
any small sprinkle we get now. It has also cooled down, here in
southern Indiana we call this cool spell blackberry winter (as they are
blooming now) how about you Gene? do you name this last cool spell
before summer lets us have it with both barrels blackberry winter also.
(the previous cool spell we call Dogwood winter)
So many perennials are blooming now--I will take a garden tour tomorrow
and send a list. How about where you are? What do you have blooming?
