   Snag to All   
   Dry enough to plow

      Is also dry enough to start planting . Got the weeds knocked down and   
   the garden tilled today , and started planting with some Rutgers   
   tomatoes . Got too hot (and I broke my posthole digger*) so I knocked   
   off about noon . I did get all 8 seedlings planted and the spots for the   
   Roma tomatoes are marked out . In the morning while it's cool I'll get   
   the rest of the tomatoes planted , along with the peppers . I'll also   
   get as much of the direct seeded stuff in as I can before it gets too   
   hot and I wilt .   
      What does a post hole digger have to do with gardening you ask ? I   
   use it to dig the holes for my seedlings . Extra deep and a little on   
   the big side so I can partly fill the hole with a mix of dirt and rabbit   
   manure before I place the seedling . Them rabbit droppings is Good Shit   
   for the garden ! (pun intended)
