wrapping up summer

how did summer go and where are we headed now august is here and i can start making better preparations for a fall garden. summer wasnt a failure, but it was poorly planned and more of an experiment. this fall will be a different story.

i browsed different seed companies and types of seeds. questioning wether to use organic seed or hybrids or heirlooms. scanning for the best reviewed varieties of each fall vegetable. what i ended up doing was going to home depot and getting a variety of it all. also i purchased a hand tiller to work up the soil a bit. i wonder how this tool will work in this black clay caliche soil. i do not know what yet i will add to the soil if anything. i will be constructing a compost pile of some sort so i can recycle that way as well.
