Soil preparation key to successful garden
I could discover no difference in yield
or flavor. If you, on the other hand,
are one of the early birds, try sowing
a later radish drop* They will be as
good as the early crop, and free of
those pesky root maggots that seem
to attack certain root crops with such
vigor.
After tilling your plot several
times, not only should you be deep
enough, but as a side benefit the soil
will be quite finely pulverized. Most
of the heavy tillers will accomplish
this nicely, leaving only a minimal
amount of raking to be done. Also,
this is the time to add manure or
compost if you plan to do so. Make
sure that any manure you add is well
rotted or it will have a disastrous
effect on your plants. As mentioned
in an earlier article, good garden soil
is about one*third each of sand, clay
and humus. You will have a good
garden crop if you add three to six
inches of well rotted manure tilled in
well If you can’t find manure, don’t
worry, you’ll probably have a good
garden anyway, and you will also
have the rest of the year to locate
some for next year! Also, you may
add a variety of materials through the
growing season to retard weeds, and
to hold moisture. This is called
mulching, and we’ll talk more about it
later.
After raking out the larger rocks
and hard clay clods, you are now
ready for planting, according to the
directions on the seed packets. In our
area, remember that usually the
spring is quite cool. Keep this fact in
mind when you read the instructions
on the seed packets. Plant only those
crops that do well in early spring and
leave the rest until later. I have found
that those crops planted later seem to
catch up to the earlier planted ones,
and also seem healthier for not having
been forced to sit and shiver for two
or three weeks. Another mistake
beginning gardeners make is to plant

NEW: GARDENING TIPS • VERNONIA GROWN
Whether your garden plot has been
worked before or not, preparation is
just about the same. The same thanks
to the rotary tiller, that is. For years
each spring, it was my back breaking
duty to spade the garden plot
employing that most primitive of
torture implements, the shovel.
Although there are several tillers
advertised each day in the Portland
papers, I would use restraint in
rushing right out to buy one. By far
the most practical and the least
expensive way to go, especially for
the new gardener is to either have
your ground tilled by someone who
does that sort of thing each spring, or
borrow or rent one to do the job. The
average gardener has little use for a
tiller after the garden plot is tilled in
the spring, so why go to the expense
and upkeep of owning one when you
will probably use it only once a year?
If you rent a tiller and expect to use
it on ground that did not have a
garden there last year, don’t expect it
to have everything ready for planting
with only one “pass’. This chore,
depending on the condition of the
ground and what’s growing on it, will
take time.
In an area that is currently in lawn,
for example, several trips over will be
necessary just to break through the
sod. After this is accomplished, going
will be much easier as you work down
into the ground to a depth of
approximately 8 to 10 inches. One
more tip: if you are having your
garden tilled, make sure it is tilled
deep enough. Most folks who do
custom tilling depend on steady
customers (return business) and are
just as concerned as you are in having
it done right, but it doesn’t hurt to
make sure.
If you hit really hard clay at a
shallower depth, you may have to
accept it the first year, realizing that
each year thereafter you have the
opportunity
to
improve
soil
conditions.
Hear in Vernonia, it is still not too
late to plant “traditional” early crops
such as radishes, lettuce and peas. As
a matter of fact, we enjoyed three
such crops last year in our garden and

seeds too deep. The usual rule is to
plant seeds no deeper than 2 -3Ltimes
their diameter. Carrot and lettuce
seeds need not be buried at all, just
sprinkle them on and tamp them
down with the hoe.
After planting it’s a good idea to
“water in” your seeds by lightly
spraying with a hose, with the nozzle
set to a fine spray. Of course, if you
are really lucky, about the time you
finish planting a nice spring rain will
begin;, a good omen signifying a
bountiful harvest.
SPRING SUNDAY REVIVAL
The
First
Baptist
Church
announces it’s “Spring Sunday”,
April 26. Actually that is the title of
their theme for Revivial as they
prepare to “Spring Forth” in their
efforts to work for the furtherance of
Christ’s Kingdom.
Reverend Leo Senn will be the
keynote speaker and services are set
for Sunday through Wednesday with
a church-wide potluck following the
regular 11 am Sunday service.
Reverend Senn is the pastor of the
Baptist Church in Vancouver and has
baptized 22 new members since
October.
“We are looking forward to some
tremendous messages and special
music during the Revival,” said
Pastor John Cahill. “Brother Senn is
being used by God in the northwest
and we are honored to have him
preach,” he said.
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
night services will be at 7 pm and the
Sunday services will be at 11 am and
7 pm with Sunday School at 9:45 am.
