Great Weather in January

The breeze is balmy, the sun strong - it sure feels like late spring or even summer.  Naturally, this triggers my gardening instincts.  I planted two small containers of spring salads mix and got some garlic to plant.  As I prepped a 18" X 4.5' bed, I saw dozens and dozens of worms.  It was hard to dig around them and even though I know that chopping one in half becomes two in the dirt.  Since worm castings are one of the very best fertilizers, I decided not to add anything - not even my standard (organic) steer manure.  We shall see what comes up.....
