Improving Clay Soils - Fine Gardening Article

This is the best article I've seen to date on how to condition clay soil for a successful garden. Since my backyard would be better suited at pottery making than gardening, I found this author's suggestions to be handed down from the garden gods themselves. For those of us in the south, this should be required reading!

The Busy Season

This is my first morning in months where I've gotten my gardening out of the way before 8AM.   With the ridiculous heat and lack of rainfall, I've been up early every morning to water, plant, weed and fertilize my gardens.   All had to be done before I had to go to work or before the heat set in at 11.  In the past couple of days we've had rain and mild weather.   My gardening suddenly became less of a chore.  I actually got to enjoy it again!   


Now it is time to update you all with more interesting posts and pictures.  Onward to mayhem!
