I started off by measuring a 16’ x 4’ rectangle to be my plot. I wanted it narrow enough that it was accessible from both sides. Next came removing the sod, this took me three days, I did approximately a 1/3 each day. After that I used a tiller to break up the soil. At first I was going to remove all the rocks but I think this will help with drainage. The next steps are, add topsoil and then plant. I have to check the weather and make sure that there will not be anymore major freezes. I have read that the seeds can withstand minor frosts, but it is best to wait until the weather warms.
