Throwing The Dirt To The Corn

Larry used the push plow and made a little trough by each row of corn.  I filled it with urea and then he used the cub to hill the dirt and fertilizer to the corn.  It looks good.  In the other garden I planted a dozen hill of pumpkins.  I planted Jack o Lantern and Connecticut Field pumpkins.  Larry worked in a farm store from the time he was an early teenager until about 1986.  He knows all about what to plant and what to use to make it grow.  But we can't make it rain so we are still dependent on nature!  Last year when we got to June we had hardly any rain.  The weather pattern seems to be better this year.  I hope it holds.  We can water the watermelons and tomatoes from the well, but it runs dry if you try to run the water more that 30 minutes.
