I might have to try raised beds this year if the shop doesn't get my dang tiller fixed sometime real soon. Looking forward to trying again this year. Last year was only my first year and it was somewhat a failure.
One question I have for this year, does adding mushroom composte help out a lot? Last year I didn't really add anything, just fertilized every now and again. Seemed like my plants would do great right after being fertilized and then struggle just a few days later.

My wife's garden last year, her first real try at it, pretty much drowned with all the rain we had. She wanted to go bigger this year, so about a month ago, I broke up some new ground/tillered it real good... Too wet again right now, but at least it's not under water! She had fun with it last year but was pretty bummed out by the rotten potatoes, dround squash, 'maters, beans and such... This year, she will have 20 rows 150 feet long... I hope she knows what she's gettin' herself into!! Soon as I can, I'll add some compost, lime and such and till it all in, then cut her rows... That's it for my part. I AIN'T NO GARDENER!!! I Hate it!! ... sure do love eatin' them fresh veggies!!! Heck, I'm even goin' to enjoy tryin' to keep the coons out! THAT is a challenge for me and my fancy bb guns!!
