I watched his videos and got it all adjusted last season. This year I just raised the little center row plow that makes the groove for planting up out of the way. Wife wanted the rows as high as possible so maybe her stuff wouldn't drown in case the rain continues... It took some trial and error to get it adjusted just right, but once done, it is very easy to use. I have a cultivator that I've used for making rows too, but this thing is SO much easier. It works like a champ.
Dang "r'nman" U quikk!!

They are very well worth the money for sure.

Well after adding some compost from our bin a couple weeks ago I now have some tomatoes and what I’m assuming are cantaloupe growing. 3 of my broccoli are still going strong, one of them flowered and went to seed without ever producing but that’s okay I’ll take it seeding the area over nothing. Onions have been small but strong. Still trying to decide what else to put in.
Reported the wife’s lemon tree to a much bigger container so hopefully we’ll get some good growth

Well, I intended to get the seedlings today, but things got in the way. Hopefully the rain holds off tomorrow and I can get them in the ground. The pollinator bed is coming up nicely.... the blooming flowers are all perineal, and the seedlings are Texas/Oklahoma, and Colorado wildflowers.

Any kind of mulch will be a benefit. Weed suppression, moisture retention, and soil temp reducing. I started with 2” of compost, and will top dress with mulched leafmold once plants are big enough.
