I tilled 2 a week and a half ago before the rain came. If it ever quits and dries out I am going to run the tiller through again and then run the row hipper. Trying to get some potatoes in within the next 10 days. I have one garden for corn only. Am planting peanuts this year as well and have never planted them.

Mine is a smaller backyard garden about 50 x 20 or so with a raised bed for root crops on the side. All tilled but can't pull my rows due to the rain making the ground so wet it's impossible to work without turning to mud.

Still have some holdovers from October/November in lettuces, Swiss Chard, collards, broccoli and a few cabbages in the main garden. There's beets and garlic in the raised bed.

Want to plant seed for the spring/summer garden but need the ground to dry some.

I need to turn under the green mulch clover, but damn, it’s wet. Raining again this AM.

Same here in N.O. Raining at least 2 days a week lately at some point and the ground has no time to dry out enough to work without making mud pies.

Just cleaned my Hoss Seeder since yes it’s too wet. Prepping in the barn is about it. I’ll clean the garden bedder and middle buster I guess.
