Yo Chris,
Me again.I dig out a square 5ftx5ft and 3ft deep and fill with
fresh horse manure and put the soil back on top, making a hill.This warms up
and keeps the soil warm for a few weeks while the seedling gets going.The
plant will not grow if the soil is cold and this helps until the weather
warms the soil.I also put a large cloche over to keep the warmth in during
the night.
