Picked up two bales of sunshine peat moss . My raised beds are one third full of soil. Going to mix in equal amounts of peat with roots organic potting soil by hand then more soil and rinse , repeat till beds are full. No truck so getting peat as I go. Last year I had maters in 20 fifteen gallon containers. I drilled two 2 in holes in bottom of containers and buried the bottom four inches in potting soil. There's a large population of earthworms where the containers were.. Was going to start germination of seeds yesterday but all I got done was marking the solo cups! I accidentally took two doses of Eliquis in the morning and was totally useless for the rest of the day.. Rain tomorrow.
