How many of you are using a tiller to soften the ground? If you are, how do you use it? Do you till the first layer then push the dirt out of the way and till the second one?
Please share what you know about tilling and lets make it easy one everyone growing out doors. LOL
Here is what I would do...
Pull out any and all weeds from the roots. If you have really tall grass you can mow it or use a weed wacker to cut it down and make it manageable to work with. You don't need to kill the grass. Once the grass is cut short you can begin tilling. The grass is fine to keep in the soil once tilled. It has some natural nutes in it.
How much you till depends on your soil conditions. I would go over it at least twice. You want a potting soil consistancy. Once you have acheived a very soft fluffy soil consider the tilling to be done.
If you are tilling a reasonably small area and the soil has no compost in it, it wouldn't hurt to throw some Miracle Grow soil in there to perk it up a bit...maybe some perlite too.
Coolio? Hope that helps.
