Thanks for the advise. Guess I was thinking about letting the stuff air out in the heat and then making a bed with it on top of my very, very heavy clay. I would be lucky to force a shovel into half way up the blade, after that its pick time to go any deeper. Was trying to come up with an easier way to go. I have a few months to go before I can plant a real garden. We are about 180 out from the rest of the country down here for our growing seasons. I can start sweet potatoes now until mid May then a few things in July and Aug. Main planting in Sep. Have been fudging with three sister plantings though using tires as hills with compost in the bottom and wood chips on top. Working so far. May try sunken mulch beds when I get the energy to dig them out. Getting old with a broken down body is no fun. The mind has all these wonderful projects, but the body just wont go along with the program. Its the old two steps forward, one back kinda thing. You all have fun while I scratch my head to see what I can come up with.
