We have had a heat drought and its barely Spring. It should rain tonight. Ya

updated pictures.

I tilled my rows. Dug a trench for each row of tomatoes and put fertilizer down each trench. Then i cover the fertilizer a little with soil and watered it in. Then i planted my tomatoes.
Mulched with compost manure. Made a little trench beside each row of maters and put fertilizer in trench. Layed out some Soaker Hoses. Watered. Then i PUt my ground cover up next to each row of maters to prevent weeds from growing.
WHA LA. no it was not that easy, very time consuming, and lots of heavy lifting. It took 300 bags of compost manure to mulch. Its not really my final mulching touch. I will be using dry grass clippings as mulch too. All this will help richen the soil this fall when tilled in.

And excuse the mess in picture. I had not picked up my bags yet.
That pic was taken Mar 29. Its all clean now.
