I'm too small of an operation to use machinery. It's just me, on my hands and knees.
I really thought I would be able to plant all of it. I am slowing down a bit more each year. Hopefully my son will have time to pitch in a bit more this year. DH is 81 and he helps as much as he can. He does a lot of the easy jobs like marking the rows and rewinding the string, things that I don't have to stop and take the time to do. It really helps a lot.
We've go some rain predicted for the next ten days, if they can actually predict that far out. It looks like they lessened the percentage though, except Thursday, which is at 100%.
