hand, in order to be sure of an 
even coverage, it is advisable 
to go over the ground two or 
three times, taking a different 
direction each time. 
Dig deeply, mixing the plant 
food well into the soil. Deep 
digging will allow the roots to 
penetrate the soil easily in their 
search for food and moisture. 
Pulverize soil thoroughly and 
rake level. This will make it 
easier to sow the seed properly 
and it will also be easier for 
the young shoots to break 
through the surface. 
Mark off plots for various vege- 
tables. It is best to have the 
rows run north and south so 
that both sides of the row get 
an equal amount of sunlight.
