OT: Plowing Yet?

Kirk-NJ · Feb 24, 2017

With this warm weather anybody plowing yet with their old fords? If so some photos would be nice.
I tilled the 2 small gardens yesterday. Had some ash and leaves I never got the chance to turn under before the winter. The weather being so warm I'm itching to plant something early, but I know better, still looking at a couple of months yet. Last time we had a 60 degree day here it snowed 10" the next day.

I'm jealous of you guys who have long growing seasons. It's snowing here right now and my plot has been inundated with rain besides to the point that it's mostly muddy.

Won't get a plow in ground untill mid or late March.

We have been busy for a couple of weeks here in SC. I've been disking, deep tilling and rototilling the garden spots. I just finished putting down plastic mulch and dripline in the high tunnel. Got strawberries, onions, taters and garlic growing in there. Will be starting seeds soon. Hoping this will be a better year garden wise. Last year the dry weather and using regular sprinklers was a waste of time. Hoping with sub surface drip tape along with the mulch will be more productive.

Been discing spots to get rid of corn stalks. Will plant potatoes and sweet corn in about 10 days.

Too wet and way to early. I don't plow until April regardless of temps.
