Hey guys!

Well it's that time of year again when spring is coming, and I hate it when it comes to digging up the soil in order to plant flowers. Last year I came up with an ingenious idea on how to do it without much work at all!

My friend video taped me and my truck...

It looks mainly like smoke but its mostly dirt from the ground . Try it out someday!

That just wouldn't work in my yard. Way to small of a yard. What's with the black smoke out of your tailpipe? I see the smoke from the dirt but it sure seemed like there was some black smoke from the tail pipe.

I agree, that was a lot of black smoke.

Interesting way of doing things though.

It looks fun, but I think I'll stick to the tiller....it can be fun too...

[GreenTomThumb]

No, most of it is dirt. It was a little bit smoggy that day so thats probably where you're seeing the smoke

That does look like fun! I will have to show this to my boyfriend. I wanted a garden this year, but he couldn't find anyone with a rototiller to put one in.

Isn't smoke too high, unwanted and unsafe too. I don't think this could be sounding green ever. Not much use to me either.

[GreenTomThumb]

It is green don't worry. I'm 99% sure that most of it is just dirt from the ground. So there is no reason to get alarmed by my gardening!

[EviesEarth]

Yeah, my yard is also a bit too small for this method.
We have a small tiller. 3plus3, you may be able to rent one for next year. We ended buying one, as it was on sale last year.

If your soil's not a sheet of solid rock, you could always resort to shovels and hoes. We did that the very first year we had a garden and while it was hard work, I still think we got our best crops that year. Got any money hungry teenagers you could hire in the neighborhood maybe?
