Just planted the Sweet Alyssum. Despite some rain, the ground is almost like concrete! (Michigan) [View all]
Less than the top inch of the soil shows any moisture and that's because we've finally had some showers, over the past few hours. What we need is a good, extended rain.
It's just been a weird Spring. We went from freeze warnings to temps in the 80's, just over the past 3 weeks.
We rototilled the veg garden, yesterday, so a REALLY good soak, now, will make planting so much easier, next week. Otherwise I'll be using a hammer and chisel to break into the soil!
