Today's project. Working on hoop house number 1 with putting in the heating cables and the good stuff! Hoop house number two will have to wait till that big boulder gets out next week! I had some folks suggest that while the excavator is here next week, that I should have them dig up the entire patch to loosen the soil. I agree with the thinking but the problem is the tons of clay about a foot and a half down. I'd rather keep the clay down there rather than have it lifted up towards the top of the soil. Probably the best idea to keep it deeper in my option. If I didn't have the clay I'd definitely do that. I appreciate everyone's comments about the boulder! Lots of humor lol
