Why are plants, and seeds planted in mounds , wouldn`t it be more
beneficial to plant at ground level,...moisture/water wise?
 I have always(this being my first year) planted in mounds , and when I
go out and weed or just look, :)
the dirt on top is always dry, I normally water every morning, with over
head sprinklers,
 I live in zone 9 ,central Florida, It stays pretty hot here, and the
sun dries the top soil fast.
I was wanting someone to explain to me the reasons for mounds..
 If their is know reason other than , "thats the way a row is made",
then I think I will try to plant in flat beds...any sugestions????
 Thanks Chris <zone9>
