I spread some amendments today and tilled in what I had time for. I didn't think I had much to spread but I had a lot of bags stacked in the garden shed over the winter and picked up more this spring. My soil test came back excellent, so I was just adding some minor additives. Nothing ground breaking. Humic acid, oyster shells, jersey greensand and some Green Gro products which have become a staple for me.

The rye was mowed for the second time this year and then the amendments spread. Soil is still very moist, so much different than last year when I had to wear a dust mask from the dry soil dusting up.
